[QUOTE="Rednaxs60, post: 221256, member: 4617"] Had another good day today. Over 320 Kms (200 miles), time for first oil change. Going to look into some of the other issues that I have identified as well. Thinking about the soft ticking sound I am hearing. Think one or more hydraulic lifters have a bit of crud from the engine oil because of the rebuild. Have decided to source and buy a set of new lifters, but until these are here, will change oil and keep listening to the engine regarding this ticking sound. Will also do a shim test when new lifters are here. Going to take the dash out and apart to have a look at the odometer, do a better fit of the lower fairings, and look at the wiring near and around the front of the shelter to try and get a better shelter fitment. Have ordered and should receive tomorrow or Friday, a set of hand warmers for the bike. Went inexpensive, $29.00 CDN. Looked at the Oxford type, but way more expensive. Only need for a few months of the year, maybe. [/QUOTE]
