Need Help Yamatick or Something Else?

[Kid Amnesiac]

Hi, hopping back on here as I can’t make up my mind on whether or not my engine sounds healthy. I know FZ6s (and Yamahas in general, hence “Yamatick”) are known for being fairly noisy but I figured it wouldn’t hurt to consult the forums to be sure it wasn’t a sign of something.

Sounds normal

Audio (lap top) sucks on my end but I didn't hear anything unusual either..

I agree it sounds ok, but if you want to check, get a long screwdriver, put the tip against the engine and your ear against the handle.

Move the tip around to find where the noise is loudest and that should be the source.
