Just listen to closely it starts at 5 seconds as i move closer to the top |
Hmm, I'd be checking the valve clearances.
|
I too would also suggest checking your valve clearances and, while you're at it, check the operation of the decompression mechanism and particularly the pin in the camshaft. The pin is fairly well known for coming loose, dislodged, misaligned and causing mysterious top end rattles. The decompression mechanism can be accessed assessed through the camshaft sprocket inspection cover on the LHS of the cylinder head (which you will have to remove anyway to do the valve adjustment.)

I had the same noice on my kawa and it ment my valve clearance was nearly gone , urgent check for you maybe this is the case !!
|
If they have never been done 35k is overdue for valve clearance adjustment. Also do you have a knocking coming from the RHS of your crankcase? It sounds like its knocking in the video you may also have a loose crankshaft nut if that is the case.
|
Valves checked - in norm. serviceman said that its normal and one cylinders are rather noisy. but then next sound bothers me and its when im trying to brake with engine, when RPM drop , something like chain rubbing starts , very annoying sound -- it stops when clutch is pressed in.

I will make engine sound update, feel like it sounds even worse now. not only ticking but rattling a little
|
UPDATE:
here's my engine sound : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9MSMEyTpIAM and here's someone's else and it sounds exactly same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yOV3b2nU-g |
