Tapping
Posted: Sun Nov 29, 2020 3:18 pm
Hello all
I have a Matchless 350 and though the bike is reg'd 1955 it has the later type engine.
My issue is that I have a loud tapping noise coming from the top end . I have checked the tappets as per manual instructions and there appears to be almost no play there [manual spec's 0] is that near enough?
Is there anything else I should check before I take the top off?
any info / advice would be gratefully received.
Thank you all in advance
John
