Author Message   Goochman Posted on Monday, July 02, 2012 - 11:41 pm:        2010 XB9SX 20k miles No upgrades except breather re route and d&d exhaust .   Thumpthump Posted on Friday, July 06, 2012 - 11:35 am:        I also have what I know is excessively loud ticking, especially around 2k to 3k+ RPM. I would really like to know what the problem is and how to fix it.   Twowheeledwonder Posted on Friday, July 06, 2012 - 02:33 pm:        Just a guess but maybe a collapsed lifter? First thing I'd try is a compression test.   Bluzm2 Posted on Saturday, July 07, 2012 - 11:55 am:        You may want to try some Seafoam in the oil. I've use it to "unstick" lifters before. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Pour in 1/3 can, run for a while to see if it clears up. Then change oil and filter.   Sticks Posted on Saturday, July 07, 2012 - 09:21 pm:        Just a thought, but switching to synthetic oil an a Buell will make it louder simply because is doesn't dampen sound as well as Dino oil. I freaked when I first switched on my Buell. Maybe? Maybe something else. Did you recently switch maybe?
