93 bayou 400 engine noise
 
Hi everyone,,I just bought a 400cc bayou that has a noise in the engine,,,it's hard to describe the noise it's like a constant tapping that gets faster as the engine revs. It doesn't sound good. Almost like an older car engine with noisy tappets or rockers. I have been told that this noise is normal on the 93 bayou,,,,LOL by the seller of course but also by the Kawasaki dealer in the town where I bought the bike. I have since had a mechanic in my own town come and listen to it. He even had a stethoscope with him and he said he could hear nothing bad going on inside and also thinks the noise is causing no harm,,,,but i still don't like it and would like the noise to be gone,,,,I'm going to try an oil conditioner to see if it quiets down. Anyone here have any ideas?
