I swapped out the versy adapter and changed the oil and filter over the winter. I just started her for the 1st time since then and there is a tap where before there was none.  Sad
The exhaust is tight and nothing is rattling
Anything obvious I should check before I open her back up?
And after I open her up, anything I should look for?

Have you checked the valves? If its got enough miles to need the Versy, they should be looked at.. & a "Tap" isnt a bad thing, NO Tap is,, the valves make noise, or theyre too tight. Find where the tap is, there are many ways to listen to an engine, A small hose, a hose with a rod in it, a long screwdriver, pick yer poison,,

See Justin,

See Justin just three days out ....

See Justin, calmly computing along oblivious to what has been already planned out for him.

See the evil worm thing, burrowing it's head down into his hard drive boot sector ....

See the worm, firmly in place now, counting down the days until it executes .....


3   -   2   -   1   -    eeerk !!  <sizzle>





"Hey guys, anybody heard from Justin lately?"
