Engine Ping

Hello, I have an 07 Ultra Classic with SE slipons, SE AC, PCIII with the correct setting from Dynojet. Problem, after I have ridden the bike for awhile and it warms up it will ping upon excelleration ( Iam not lugging it). Not sure what to try. Any Ideas? Thanks AL

How can you hear a ping with all that knocking?? Time for a little quality time on the dyno. [sm=signs003.gif]

RE: Engine Ping

Are you getting top end "clicking" (valve noise) as well? Haven't had any problems with my 07 "yet" (3K miles), but I did have some pinging issues with my 03 and it started out as a light pinging and then very noticeable clicking as the engine got hotter.It ended up being the cam chain tensioner wearing improperly - started right around 10K miles. Dealer replaced it as a warranty item.

And it's nothing a good set ofgear driven cams won't fix either!
