primary noise (higher RPM), etc.
Hearing noise from primary, sounds like it's coming from the front area. More noticeable as RPM increases, especially from 2nd gear on. Sounds metallic, like a loose chain. Primary chain tension is fine, so is rear belt. Haven't yet checked compensator nut or clutch basket, but maybe I'm overlooking something else?
I recently had serviced at HD for the same noise (which had worsened over time)- they replaced pri. & sec. cam chain tensioner(I didn't know there were two tensioners - can someone explain?). Cam bearing kit was also installed - what exactly is that? Also, I had checked the clutch basket before having it serviced and it was "wobbly" - as I turned it, it seemed to be warped, as it turned like a bent bicycle wheel.
I hate taking it to the shop - your help is appreciated.
Thanks.
