... But I've got a few questions.
I hear a clicking noise when riding about, in the 3-6k range, like valves "pinging" on a car run on too low octane.
The stock exhaust isn't exactly scary in any range, but coupled with the "ping" sound, it's awful. Any ideas why this is happening?
The other question was regarding the chain - I don't believe the dealer oiled it up correctly - it looks as dry as a popcorn fart.
Can I get Lube101 tips, or should I search?
Finally, I've driven manual transmission cars for over 20 years, and I rode dirt bikes almost as long ago - why does shifting my bike seem like an exercise in KLUNKometry every time I shift - it is NEVER smooth... again, been off a bike for a long time, but man, up and down, the shifts seem, well, klunky.
1-2 especially are rough - (I'm talking about shifting around 6-9k).
