yeah fair point. 8)

Thanks for a top post you lot...I had my cams changed a while back and since then I've had an annoying clacking sound on start up and when running cold.I had a sneaking thought that the tensioner was at fault.Took your advice and used the same principle with the ZXR as the six..Did excactly as rob did and found my clacking noise gone.It's quite a simple job.I didn't need to remove the carbs either. I too can do a happy dance :oops: Thanks again. :)
