engine ticking sound
I have a 2002 cbr954rr with 2500 miles below 4000rpm the engine makes a ticking sound like maybe the timing chain or valve. My question is has anybody had the cam chain adjusted or valves adjusted. If so did it cost very much to have done. I bought this bike 6 months ago from the original owner it had 800 miles and he babied the bike. This bike has never been abused in anyway and has never seen red line. The bike runs perfect so I do not believe it is anything major it is just annoying.

RE: engine ticking sound
is it a minor ticking? ive been told that its rare for cbr's to need a valve adjustment (p.o.s. gsxrs, zx, yzf!) andhighly highly doubt its the cam chain tensioner i got slight tickin but is nothin and seems common if u ask me cuz i havent had one problem and im 22,000 miles strong!

RE: engine ticking sound
trust me youll know if it is ur cam chain cuz the tickin is not minor it actually sounds like crap. also you cant adjust the factory cam chain tensioner because its not a manual set up. if you want a manual setup u can get it well under $100 but as of know im 99% sure you'd be wasting your money replacing it or takin the bike to the shop to get checked out.
