Kpr 200 Engine Ticking
So I have about 80 miles on this bike now and I noticed this sound coming from the engine. Has anyone heard this noise with this bike before? Does not sound normal. I am about to change the oil out and put a new oil filter in since I didn’t change the original since I got the bike. Though I did drain the original oil. https://youtube.com/shorts/RrqLAHPRCI4?feature=share

Change the oil, adjust the valves. It does sound loud. You sure you don't have an exhaust leak.

I agree with what Jerry said. My engine has always sounded a little noisier than some other bikes I've owned but it has not ever been a problem. The camera may be amplifying the noise some but adjusting the valves and doing a complete oil change is a wise thing to do. I love the green color by the way! :tup:

Did you put enough oil in? Mine was noisy like that when I ran low.

Since you did change out the Chinese mystery oil, I'd just make sure the level is correct, then check out the valves. If it was low on oil, add what you need and run it again. If the sound goes away, it was the oil level. If you still have the sound, wait for the motor to cool down overnight and then check the valve clearances.
Personally I think it's very loose valves. Even if the sound goes away when you add oil, you really should check out the valves, on general principles. |
So I did the valve adjustment and it still does that ticking noise. But now something interesting has happened. Something shot out of the exhaust! Looks like old oil but not sure. Uploaded another video to show the sound still and the stuff that came out. https://youtube.com/shorts/dsG8RZS5jX8?feature=share

Seems like that oil on the floor is fresh by its color. Is it possible that the engine is now over filled. It didn’t come from the exhaust, more likely a crank case breather. Just my thoughts!
