Hi, I am new to the forum. I just bought a 2006 Outlaw that is having some issues. One of them is a loud knocking coming from high on the engine. When I first start it, everything sounds normal, but if I rev it to higher RPM’s the knocking will start and continue while the quad is running even at idle. The knock is loudest on the cam chain side high up at the cams. Someone told me the valves may need adjusted (but it starts easy). I am looking for opinions on what this may be and I am leaning toward the cam chain needs to be replaced???
