bike sounds like a diesel!!!!
Its sounds like valves or lifters I dont know.
Its really random it wont do it at all on cold starts sometimes then others it will and same when the engine is hot
I checked the oil and its good I tried different gas and nothing.
The only consistent thing is that it does it only below 4-5k RPM, above that the sound goes away and gets dramatically quieter.
The bike runs really strong too
HELP!

RE: bike sounds like a diesel!!!!
There's no sure-fire way to KNOW it's the CCT, but the symptoms you describe let me know it's about 99.9 % chance it is. The valvetrain on these engines are pretty much bulletproof, so I highly doubt it's that. A rattling sound like marbles in your top end in the RPM range you describe point to the CCT. It's a known weak point on a LOT of Honda inline 4 engines. (F1-F4i).
Plus, if you've got over 10-15K miles on your engine, it's just a matter of time before it will start rattling anyway. Just go ahead and order the new one. You will need item #5 (the "lifter assembly", or CCT) and item #1 (new gasket). Also, be sure to order the updated CCT (the part number ending in MAL-305). Ronayers has always had good prices on OEM parts: http://fiche.ronayers.com/Index.cfm/...N_-_F3_-_95-96
Let us know how it goes.
