Title: Ever see this happen before? Post by Lucaisrussell on 09/09/13 at 09:37:24 So I'm tuning my bike trying to get the new mikuni 38mm vm to work. I get to a good stopping point and continue the next day. Before I go on I change the oil and filter. I start up the bike and hear this terrible rattling sound. I open up the primary cover to find the cam chain guide adjuster has come apart. What could have caused this? I did do a lot of starting and turning off the previous day while tuning. The oil change? No serious damage and after a visual inspection I'm just going to slap it all back together and it should work just fine. Oh and one of my header pipe flange bolts were missing. Any ideas?

Post by verslagen1 on 09/09/13 at 09:41:09 yes, we have. http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1344399573 and that's one of the 1st things I'd check on a new2you savage. Luckily, you caught it in time with no damage. You either need to replace the chain or verslavy it. pay your fine, do not pass go.

Title: Re: Ever see this happen before? Post by Serowbot on 09/09/13 at 09:42:54 Yup,.. we've seen that before... Your cam chain is stretched... Don't just put it back together,.. it will happen again... and could be bad... You need a Verslagen modded camchain adjuster... See in the marketplace... http://www.savageriders.com/verslagen/CamChainClub/fixed.jpg
