Better pic

 

Dr Hess thanks for the video, love the fishtails ,a buddy of mine had those on a 98 heritage bad assssss!

 

So I take it that you don't have to be going down the road to hear the wine... So if the bike is sitting there idling you can hear it as well as when revving it up? Can you post a video? If this is the case I would definitely be looking at the cam gears for being too tight or a possible cam bearing going bad... You do have a manual, right? All the specs are in there for the cam.

And yea might as well go with a better cam as mentioned earlier if you're going in there....

 

Just got the bike ,still have to get manual,have to figure how to post video,

 

The only way I know to do that is to first put it on Youtube and then include a link from Youtube in your post.

Your timing cover certainly looks original. That isn't an absolute guarantee that it's never been opened. Some guys do re-rivet them, but that is by far the exception.

 

He brings up a point. Don't go doing a lot of work to it because you heard, or read it on the net. most of it is BS. Learn about your EVO first.
CLEAN the tappet screen. If it has been sitting it may well need it.

This may help you.

The first thing I did was change fluids clean tapper screen no metal found, drive belt and primary chain were loose
