Engine noise after tensioner replacement
03/08/15 at 17:35:42

Had a buzzing sound so I measured my tensioner at 19mm and replaced it this morning with a verslavy. Unfortunstly it is back still, cannot see anything that is rattling and it tends to happen after I am warmed up after 15-20 minutes at speed. Here is a video I took when I got back from my test ride. (Video will be on next post because of new user posting rules)Any ideas? My only mods are the tensioner and the petcock, everything else is stock at the moment.

I had to switch it to the second hole under tension. Thanks for the mod by the way, it looks great.

Probably should have specified that. Going to be heading to bed but I'll check back In the morning.
