Anyone near Chicago cb550
« on: June 03, 2015, 07:28:00 PM »
Looking to meet up with someone with a good running/sounding cb550 preferably someone that's known these bikes for awhile. Mines makes some noise and I wanted to hear what a properly maintained one sounds like.

Kinda has a chain type of noise. doesn't really sound like a primary/clutch basket. Adjusted the cam chain tensioner and it seemed to be working correctly and didn't change the noise least not for the better.

Already done. Noise is present at idle and gets slightly louder into the higher rpm bands. Noise is also audible at cruising speed.

Made a clip so it's easier to understand.
