    Does the sound appears after engine switch off or engine running???? Are talking about the "famous tik tik sound" of RE UCE tappet. The SOUND will be your travel companion..... 😜 😝 😛

    IIRC, fins, plz elaborate!!!!
    Nope.. It appears while engine running. Feels like some rattling noise. Whats that tappet noise? Its, If I Recall Correctly (IIRC) it comes near fins.

      The "tik tik sound" is the "famous" Tappet sound. Which occurs during 30-40kmph or 80-90kmph. The sound of Automatic De-Compression occurring inside the new UCE (since 2010) engine. According to RE it's just NORMAL, NO HARM thing. As new UCE comes with hidrolic

        Yes I'm

        And brother it is not compulsory for you to be there, but if you are available then it would be great for me to have a fellow Thunderbird rider help me inspect the bike properly.

          [MENTION=32142]kush[/MENTION], Let me remind you, Shahila Expositions doesn't deliver bike on finance until the FULL amount is disbursed in its bank account. So make it SURE & move to the showroom, try to take the delivery during the day, avoid evening time. Best of luck.

            Thanks but I've ordered it through Military canteen as I got discount from there, they took full amount in advance. Now all I need to do is go there and just inspect it and take the delivery.

            It is a complicated process to explain.

                  That's a high temperature paint. If have the paint DOY. Make sure you bake the paint once it's dry else it will peel off again. How to bake a painted surface. Check YouTube. Good luck
                  Cheerio!

                          Hope you notice the SOLUTION to your problem. Looks odd but very effective, doesn't add any extra weight on the bike, attached with only 2 zip ties, so easy install & remove.

                            Largely an open ended question. Need to go through all the ownership threads to gather required information!. Anything more specific, and I am sure everyone will be able to help you!.

                                Try to check out the wheel's bearings too by removing the wheel.
