Ok I FINALLY got the bike running, the only problem I have now is that my motor makes a ticking noise when it warms up then stops. I dont know what it is, but it sounds like it is comming form the rocker covers.

I will see if I can get a video tomorrow. Happens for like 2 minutes when the bike is warming up then it goes away and everything is fine.

Any clue?

is this bad? is there any way to stop this?

Maybe I am just paranoid but I just dont want to screw my engine up, especially after it was in the shop for 13 months...

THANKS

It's amazing what a little Marvel Mystery Oil can do in a case like this.

If it STOPS sounding like a blender with a hand full of nickles in it, then START to worry!
