Consumer Description

THE ENGINE OF MY MOTORCYCLE DEVELOPED A TICKING NOISE AFTER RIDDING AROUND 750 MILES FROM NEW,THIS IS NOTICEABLE WHEN HOT OR COLD,THROUGH A KAWASAKI FORUM I USE I FOUND OUT THIS IS A POSSIBLE CAM AND TAPPETS FAILURE TO FIX MAY RESULT IN THE ENGINE LOCKING UP CAUSING A POSSIBLE CRASH IF NOT DEATH. KAWASAKI HOWEVER WHERE I BOUGHT IT SAY IT'S NORMAL FOR KAWASAKI'S TO SOUND LIKE THAT. *TR
