Hey all, I'm new to the yamaha venture and so far the wife and I love the bike, the question I have is after doing the 600 mi. oil change using 15w-40w rotella the engine has some valve ticking on cold start up then goes away in about a minute. Is this a normal thing on this engine, or do I just have a valve set a little loose, oh yeah the bike is an 09. Thanks for the help.

Has anyone experienced electrical interference on their headsets when plugged into the intercom system? i am getting a ticking noise in the speakers when the engine is running. Ticking is there regardless whether using the headsets in intercom, Cb, or radio/audio mode. Any ideas or suggestions? The sets I am using are sold by Show Chrome Accessories...maybe part of the problem. Only cost $100 per set. Get what you pay for? Is there an inline noise filter available to eliminate the interference? Thanks!

I don't often ride without a full face helmet and the radio blaring. The other day I grabbed my half helmet and headed out to the gas station. Therefore I have no idea if this is a new noise or not, but if i get rolling pretty good (15mph - + ), pull in the clutch close the throttle, I can hear a tapping, clicking sound in the front end. I got back home and had my wife help me look for nails... nuttin. calibers are good and tight, bike only has like 3K miles on it. I need to get it up on a lift and spin the tire, bottom line. I don't have the means to order one of Carbon1's lift adaptors at this time. Is there anything I can do with 2x4's or anything in the meantime until i can get an adaptor ordered from Carbon1? additional info: the ticking sound seems to be in synch with the tire rotation... speeds up and slows down with the speed of the tire rotation.
