davideb23 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Hi, today i'm here to ask some advices regarding a problem (hope nothing bad) with the rc36. The bike sat for many many years, now when i start the engine it makes some valvetrain noises and you can hear it from the front cylinders very well, the rear ones are fine. It also developed a small leak from the valve cover, that's as easy as changing the gasket. The bike has nearly 30000km, what do you think it could be? Since i'ill have to pull the valve cover i'ill check for valve lash, but some time ago i read about a problem with lubrification in the front bank due to a small oil passage.

bdouvill Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Try posting a decent quality video of the engine running so experts can try to evaluate potential damages. I hope you changed oil before starting it, didn't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davideb23 Posted June 20, 2019 Author Share Posted June 20, 2019 Yes, full oil change. I'll try my best to record a video and get that noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
