Hi all - anyone have a lot of miles on your 2014 or later bike, or on an earlier model with the '14 CCT?
The original on my '12 failed at 75,000 miles (fortunately with no damage) and I have 62,000 on the new '14 version. It was dead quiet compared to the old version, and stayed quiet till a recent valve check. (Maybe I wasn't really listening for it, until I listened to the motor after the valve adjustment?). Since the adjustment it has been noisy starting from cold - nowhere near as noisy as the old one, but noise lasts for a longer period. Maybe 2 seconds on the '12, 5 seconds now. Something like that.
Cam chain was checked at the service and declared ok. So I'm wondering - is this an early sign of troubles with the '14 tensioner as well?
