Does detonation sound like a rod knock?Here's the situtation.......86 bottom, long rod stroker, Mid port,br8es plug, bike was running great (less than 15hrs on top) .Over the winter i changed out the pipe from a bills pipe to a Hetrick racing pipe that i bought on here..I went to ride it recently and the thing sounds like it has a BAD rod knock so to say, haven't pin pointed exactly where its coming from..The noise is only at idle, it does not get louder as you rev it (or i just can't hear it anymore)...The motor pulls soooo strong on the bottom but just seems to bog on the mid -top i mean if i stay in it it will eventually rev up but it just falls on its face.....I am running c12 fuel fuel but i also bought it from a store that was going out of business, Klotz supertechniplate oil.........I know i have to start messing with the jets and I am going to check the counterbalancer after i do the regular things first..Just looking to see if anyone had any similar experience's ???????
Thanks
