Hello Guys, I am new to the forum but so far, I think its cool that I have fellow CBR F2 owners to talk to! Anyways, I was on my way home from a friends about 5 minutes from my house, the bike rode fine, no problems, what so ever! So, when I pull into my drive way, I put it in neutral and I hear this ticking noise in and around the motor (block area on the right side just inside where my knee sits when I ride). So, I turn it off and I take all my farrings off to check things out and I can't spot anything. Then on the left side of the bike I see that one of my plugs is loose, so I plug it back in. I start it back up but I still have that horrible ticking sound and I can't figure out what it is or where it is coming from exactly! If anyone can help me trouble shoot this, I would appreciate it highly!! I need to know what can be done to fix it, how much, what parts or just anything. PLEASE HELP ME IF YOU CAN!!!! Thank You Tim

 

The area where you are talking about is where the cam chain tensioner sits...but it alone won't make a ticking sound...Could be a # of things incl. valves, leaking gasket, or even a loose spark plug.

How is it running? Is there a miss to it?

thats your cct (cam chain tensioner)..the ticking is the CCT is notkeeping pressureon your cam chain, causing a chain slap..do a search on here that a REALLY big problem with F2's...well that and regulator/rectifiers...
