i can hear a slight ticking almost knocking noise coming from the engine, it sounds like it could be towards the front near the bottom of the engine it only makes it when the engine is reving down. do you have any idea what this could be?

the thing is mine just started this noise, i have 3200 km on it and it is definetly not valve noise i am hearing. my valves have made noise since day one and they haven't changed one bit, but this new noise is starting to scare me because it is getting worse. like i said it makes the noise when i let off the throttle, when i rev it up it doesn't make it just when i let off.

i recieved the letter shortly after i bought the quad, i took it in for the recall and they replaced it, how does this problem effect the crank and how much does a new crank cost?

how does this plate come loose? is this something that honda would cover again or would i have to pay to fix this? will this cause any damage to other parts or can i just keep driving it as it is?
