Bigpurp...I listened to your clip. It is definitely the chain tensioner. Very simple replacement, PM me if you need me to walk you through, you can even call me

bigpurp could you e-mail me a clip of it too at crazychomp@cox.net

I'd like to know what it sounds like as well. I have a MY02 and would love some assitance from the famous mechanic billman250.

Thanks in advance!

Email sent w/clip, Jeff.

*edit* email kicked back b/c it says your mailbox was full.

Can anybody host this vid so I don't have to keep emailing it to people? It's only an 8 MB avi file.

No...this is not normal. I'm quite sure the t-chain tensioner is bad. He'll change it and let us know...
