i appologise for the language.....the tick it like a really loud click/clank up the top of my motor, i'm assuming its the valves and they messed up adjustin them or sothing, but i'mnot really sure...only reason i took it into the was because of the ticking and cause its all warrenty work

it seems like the honda mechanics are nothing more than the average joe with a clymer.

it should tick a littlebit, and ur gonna need em redone after a little while after everything loosens up cause there will be play in the valves again. Is this bike brand new?

its about 4 months old, but thats what it went in for was to get the valves adjusted and **** and it came back with the tick, i took it over to a honda race shop around the corner and he ****ed around with some things for about half an hour and now you can bearly hear the tick

my 400 has ticked for at least 6 months now i was told to ignore it from a friend.. but i have ran the pizz outa mine for 2 year and she's never left me stranded!
BUT if i only had it 4 months and it started doin that i would be a dealers worst nightmare:devil:
