cb350f timing chain
« on: August 10, 2012, 06:05:24 AM »
I have 1972 CB350F with some very slight timing chain noise, not slapping noise very rhythmic sounding. per the Honda manual i adjusted the chain, self adjusting, loosening the lock nut and nut then tighting, very simple. i feel it hasn't changed or quited down. is there anything else i should do or leave it?

When properly tuned and running, a 350F engine is smooth and quiet. A small amount of chain noise is normal and often may seem exaggerated because the engine is so quiet.
