tappet adjustment
Posted: 26 Jun 2006 17:02
Can someone please help me here as im getting confused as hell 
Firstly ill describe whats happening......
from cold my 501 excalibur sounds sweet(she should do as she`s only done 8000 miles)
But once everything is up to temp there is this tinny knocking noise coming from i believe the front cylinder Under de acceleration this seems to dissappear? but when you wind on the throttle you can hear it clear as day?
Anyone got ANY idea`s what it could be? I thought about the tappets?
If anyone as a how to on how to adjust the tappets i would be most gratefull
