  • My bike when it starts up. MAKES A VERY LOUD knocking sound. It sounds like there is a metal rattling around either in the cylinder or in the casing im not sure. I dont want to start it up again and risk further damage. What do you think it is?

  • @KARATExxCHUCK in the best case scenario it could be a busted cam chain tensioner: not an easy fix but at least it's not catastrophic.... there are a lot of worst case scenarios though that are probably more likely

    I'd get a mechanic you trust to take a look at it for some troubleshooting, definitely a bad idea to start it again until you know what's wrong!

  • Can a bad rod bearing effect power.

  • very much so, but the main issue is that the engine will only run for a very short amount of time after it has spun a bearing like this: if you let it keep going past this point you are likely to throw a connecting rod and cause a lot more (often irreparable) damage!

  • Broken.

  • @wsvitak sounds like a lazy mechanic

  • Oil changes aren't optional

  • Hey, my kx85 got a werid knocking noise and eventually stopped running. The mechanic told me it because my power valves are stuck. Does this seem to make sense or do you think it could be the rod bearings?

  • how much is something like this cost to get it fix i have this problem in my car but some people say the it cost like 900 other people say like 500 other people!! say for me to just get a engine..........what is the truth please some 1 help me:(

  • @mg016 did cave men discover fire

  • Those con-rods are short, must be a really revvy bike!

  • if ur rod bearing is that you also have a bad rod and chances are its hurt the crank as well just sayin the rod bearings on my tercel rattle like crazy and dont move that much u just took the rod bearings out lol
