  • Tappet Needs Adjustment In Just 2700 Km ??

    Hi guys, i own a 2011 CBZ-x ,2700 Km on ODO. I m having a strange problem from last few days. My RPM is decreasing and eventually engine stalling even on main stands.
    Checked my IDLE RPM,its set to 1.5 When HOT,Checked Air Filter As well. Went to a local mechanic (As SVC in my town was closed due to Diwali). Was told that TAPPETS are loosed and needs to be tightned. There is a slow Humming sound as well (like old pulsars ).
    Just wanna know are TAPPETS the culprit and how often these needs to be checked??
    m feeling very bad due to this, guys please help. A pictorial description would be extremely helpfull

      Adjusting tappets is not a problem,It needs inspection every 5000kms and adjust if necessary. Have a look HERE,We had adjusted the tappets of an ZMA ran about 4000kms. It can explain you very well.
