How dare to trust it! It's going to melt into a pool of molten slag you know! Horrible, unreliable things...
I measured the rocker end floats of my 2009 Griso SE when I did the first valve clearance adjustment at 643km (400 miles)Here it goes:-Cyl 1 IN - 0.23mm (0.009")Cyl 1 EX - 0.25mm (0.010")Cyl 2 IN - 0.25mm (0.010")Cyl 2 EX - 0.27mm (0.011")
That's almost exactly what mine are. So I'll take that as a supporting data point, tell people that the clatter is a "feature", not a "bug", and ride in security.Thanks!!Lannis
I don't believe that valve adjustment indicated valve seat recession. That would have reduced the clearance. Seems like normal valve train wear to me.
I ran this through Google Translate set to Roper > English:"You measured that? You need a hobby."
So I'm guessing the rocker float gives the characteristic little "clatter" until it warms up ... I'm going to assume (it's hard to use that word any more; curse you KevM!) that it's OK.
I also understand that they made a change to one of the hydraulic cam chain adjusters, because it leaked down when it set. I'm thinking that may be the noise I hear at startup. And the cam or rocker float I hear like a cement mixed when it gets really hot.
