 Yes, I know, it looked awful and I hate yellow passivate, just looks dirty.  hence the tart up

Just BZP it and that will stop it from going rusty and leave it with a good finish

Roo. What’s your plan for process of illimination.

[Laverdaroo]

I’ve been in and checked the cams etc, nope…

Had the starter out and inspected, nope….

Kind of running out of stuff to check but the clutch is the next stop I feel, if I find nothing there the lumps’ coming out and I’ll have to split it I guess. Dunno really. Just can’t figure out what the ‘Parp’ is! Sent you some footage Phil, didn’t send last night when I tried.
I’ll get to it later, got a pre op this arvo so need to get that sorted out first.

My footage didn't play Roo, I got to the point where you move and you can see the bike and you say "Right" then it stops everytime.

Just tried again and the vid worked this time. I only heard the parp once, when it stalled halfway through. Not sure what to make of the noise TBH, could it be the new airfilters making it? It sounded a little like a lot of air being dragged through a small opening and that opening vibrating as it did so.

Christ knows how one refs.

That’s exactly what I’m doing now. Had the lid off again and turned her over with a screwdriver as a stand in cam sprocket and the noise is there still. So it’s nothing to do with that side of the motor. On a metal bench on the centre stand,  the noise reverberates through the frame and bench making hard to pin point.

That being said, not that I’d seen the above but I’m just bobbing the starter motor off again and odds on from observations, it’s that swine

Fingers crossed, I’ll report back.

Cheers for all the help fella’s

If that ain’t it, obviously it’s a sump drop to get some lube on the starter mech. Sorry you are going through this Roo. Stick with it. If it’s easy, it’s not worth doing or having.
