Hey guys/gals, i got my bike about 3 months ago, and i have ridden it for a little while than one perfect day i decided to adjust my valves, and did so with the help of my friend. And about 2 days later while going on the highway at about 105-110 for about 10-15 min, all of a sudden there was a loss of power. I pulled over to curb, and turned the bike off. Then when I tried to turn it back on the engine would run, but it would make horrible metal-against-metal clanking noise somewhere in the top of the engine. This probably has something to do with the valves. So i decided to fix it myself, right now i have the valve cover, and the head off the motor. And when i looked at the piston and the valves there was a **** load of carbon build up or something like that. But the thing is i dont see anything wrong with the valves.
Btw this is a Kawi Ex500 '96 with 46k on it.
Pictures of what i have uncovered in the engine so far will come tomorrow.
