Hi Guys, I have a 2011 660Z tenere. They bike runs well but whenever I accelerate it sounds like tappets a loose. To me it sounds like
engine is pinging due to timing not advancing enough or none at all. Am I just looking for an issue that not there at all ?
Please share your thoughts  :thumleft: BTW I did check the valve clearances, they are in spec. Bike has done 54000km. Looks like previous owner did the airbox mod by installing free flow air filter.
Thanks
