2007 CVO Springer engine noisy
« on: May 03, 2012, 09:24:22 AM »
Just recently purchased an 07 CVO Springer and seems to have some engine noise (sounds like valves rattling) between 1800 - 2000 rpms. The noise goes away as the rpms increase. Is this normal for the 110's? Does anyone else have this issue?

Seems to be a common "feature" of the 110. Mine has had that noise since I bought it new in '07. Think it has something to do with rocker clearance. Doesn't seem to be any sort of problem, tho. Just get louder pipes! lol!!
