some one might be able to help. honda today 50 australian af61 aircooled scooter just installed the takegawa cam into my scooter which has got, 94cc kit, 54% gear, big carb, delta clutch, kevlar belt, kitaco varaitor, opened up airbox and custom exhaust. since installing the cam, when it's warm, there is a ticking type of sound on high mid to full throttle , it doesn't keep in time with revs, almost sound like a pebble in a tin can, i thought it might be pinging, so i upped the jet from a 87 to a 90, which didn't seem to fix it, it's going really hard and the sound only comes in after warming up, it also does not happen all the time??? any ideas, i spoke to one of my mechanic friends and he heard the sound by locking on the brakes and reving, he seems to think it is a metal sound, but not a bearing, maybe something vibrating or rubbing?

If you were pinging... why would you try and solve it by upping the main jet? Pinging is caused by gas igniting too early, try using higher octane fuel and see if that solves the problem You should check your cam timing as well, you might have put it off... mind you i hear when you do that engine no run real well sooo..... It also could be due to the new cam profile, you simply get more ticking sound, i noticed this when i got my H.O cam from BSS...
