No, we only opened the clutch cover to replace the adjuster.

Ah, Dr_Jim beat me to the photos...Good job.
I'd still be looking very closely at everything. I don't believe that your noise is coming from the con rod. That would be a first here.
Any thoughts on the cam gear?

Yes I did remove the botl that holds the decompression system . If I remember the shaft came out and I undid it to get it back in. Very good Idea as the sound was like that. Once again thanks for these insights.
Greg, my do hickey is ok at the moment. lol
take care

how many miles in your Savage?
You seem to be looking at issues which come on very high mileage bikes.
Look for something simple before jumping to big issues like worn wrist pin.

24,000 miles on the bike. 12.000 of them mine. I think it may well be in the Rocker arms .

Was the decompression solenoid adjusted to 3-5 mm of free play? Or did any of it get loose?

I dont think i did anything to the solonoid only the part under the head cover. If I can get home early enough tonight (It's a long drive for me) I will get the top off tonight.

Can't go by "feel" on the wrist pin...get the mics first. You can get a 1-3" set at Harbor Freight for around $35
.
Any chance you have a link to the micrometers as I have searched for about an hour and even phoned them to no avail

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut between the seat and the handlebars. Make sure yours isn't too tight or too loose.

You are right. The darn things aren't shown online. If you go into the store they will be there...maybe...it might depend on the branch. I know of 2 here that have them.

Sears used to have micrometers. Haven't looked for them in a long time, and stumbled across them when I did.
