    200x Running Right?

    Does it sound like my trike is running right? It doesn't smoke at all. I just get really paranoid about this thing.

    Stock exhaust? Sounds ok. What is that fluid sitting on top of your bottom end?

    Sounds a little clanky, not unusual. Ensure your valve lash is in spec and timing chain isn't stretched.

    That clank is what had me a little worried. I'll go ahead and check that out just to make sure. Thanks!

    x-rider: Yeah, that is the stock exhaust. That was just water. I had just washed my truck and figured I would clean this up too while I had the hose out.

    125Mmadness: It's a little cold weathered and takes a few kicks to get it started but, other than that, I think it runs great. The clank that yaegerb pointed out is what had me a little worried.

    All I could hear is maybe a little bit of cam chain rattle. It does sound like it may be idling a little bit low. Maybe that noise is just from the low idle.

    I think my carburetor might be a little off. I was planning to do a rebuild on it.
