Guest Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 Swap it for a Yamaha sorry mate no idea Quote
Guest markchris Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Does it go away when the engines warm? Have heard of similar noises and can be cam shaft end float, if such nothing to worry about. Try a reputable dealer for advice. Quote
techno Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 I have an older 636 and I got told they do make some noises and it is a kawasaki thing but could just be sha*ged!Take it to someone you trust! Quote
Guest Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 get louder cans you wont hear it then!! Quote
Guest Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 sounds to me like ur headders are blowing - take fairing off... start bike up... and put ur ear close there.. see if it apprears louder.when they blow it makes a ticking noise.. kinda like an electrical circuit sparking noise..possible fault could be one of your o-rings have worn away or u lost a bolt/nut Quote

Immediately after carrying out this procedure, pick up telephone and dial 999 and ask for an Ambulance to take you to the nearest burns unit, where they will attempt to reconstruct your ear... Quote
Guest Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Mine was the same, told that it was a Kwak thing Quote
Keithg24 Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 I agree with Gary, it is the only course of action.Just look at what owning a Kawa has done to Techno!!!! It is not worth the risk! Quote
techno Posted September 21, 2007 Posted September 21, 2007 Yes keith its made me feel young again....maybe you should try one Goit! Quote
