ive got a 400ex and just got done with a rebuild and thought it would cure a ticking problem i had. i though maybe it was timing chain or somthing.everything is new except the rocker arms.is there anything that can be replaced that would wear out like bushings or something in the valve cover that would cause this tick?thanks..... im sure the valves are adjusted right also...sounds exactly the same before and after the rebuild

doesnt hurt to double check the valves.

personally i think its a honda thing, on every honda quad i ahve had has had a slight tick noise, valves are always fine, no idea what it is..

did you put a larger cam in that well cause a ticking noise in side the motor. this is caused by the larger loobs
