Premium Member ULEWZ Posted August 11, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted August 11, 2015 Pretty tired of the Cam chain noise (even though it is nothing to worry about). I am probably going to be buying a manual cam chain tentioner and thought I would offer up the options currently available to us and maybe more will chime in with other options (If I buy one, this thread will become a HowTo): PRS MCCT APE MCCT Note, the Ape is about $30 more, but appears to be a little better built. Comments? A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.

Took off my steering damper also and will go for a ride and see if I really need it. I'm thinking of selling it and buying an ECU flash harness and software.

fjay09 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I have noticed a cam chain rattle noise on deceleration at about 2500 rpms. I was going to stop by the dealer and talk to them but is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine sounds more like a derailer on a bicycle between gears. It is not related to speed, but does go up and down with rpm. I will get a MCCT and advise.
