4000 Mile Service

Postby Bristle Hound » Wed Sep 17, 2003 6:10 pm

Just had my xx in for its 4000 mile service today at Tillstons in Stockton
Excellent job & £98 :thumbsup) for the service which I didn't think was to bad :clap: - Even offered me a loan bike for the day !

Only downside is the cam chain tensioners knackered :bigcry: , which is abit of a suprise since the bikes only done 4290 miles
Its back in next week to have the new part fitted under warranty :thumbsup)

Both the mechanics were suprised to, saying it usually the Cbr 600's & Zzr's that the CCT's go's so quick

Any1 else had a CCT go so quick as well :?

Glad you got a trustworthy dealers Bris..but sorry to hear about the CCT. It don't make sense to me. Some go really quick and some don't :banghead) My xx 's done 40k so now i'm waiting for that tell-tale rattle :(
You have offended my family..........and you have offended the Shaolin Temple.

I would be really surprised if the CCT has actually failed after 4000 miles after seeing whats inside one. I'm in the process of doing a little bit of an article for the main page on the CCT so all will be revealed later including a lttle bit on how to check whether the CCT is the cause of the problem.

It would appear that any rattle whatsoever gets blamed on the CCT and I wouldn't be at all surprised if they change the CCT, the noise goes away for a very short time and then comes back again in the space of a few hundred miles.

Hopefully changing the CCT will sort out your problems but keep us posted.

BTW if anyone thinks they need a new CCT in the near future David Silvers has them in at only £34.
95% of all Harley Davidsons ever made are still on the road... the other 5% made it home.

Had mine changed recently and I think I've done about 350 miles since then. It has made the world of difference, but I'll let you know if it starts to rattle again :) The bike had about 11.5k on it when I first noticed it, and it got changed eventually at just short of 14k

Again, your wit and expertise is astonishing to me Mr. Bus Rider. You must be the envy of all bikers in the Puget Sound region. 8)

Got my xx back today after 2 hours at Tillo's :clap:
She now purrs instead of rattling :thumbsup)
Even lent me a 03 plated 350 mile Honda 650 V twin Varedero (?) thingy which I must admit was absolutely shite :bigcry:
But I ain't complaining really, at least they lent me a m/c to play with - Top m/c shop :notworthy)
