hey everybody,just got my first HD 1996 electraglide classic fi.
im not a brand basher and still own a few "across the pond toys". i got this bike by the grace of god.a long time friend mine,her dad passed away 4 years ago and her mom is letting me make payments. its pretty well modded and custom. pm wheels,upgraded to 96 in,cams,so on and blah blah. so before i fired it i changed all the fuilds,plugs and so forth.well when i started it everything went perfect except when it got to temp it started ticking. my first thought was valve s need adjusted but then a buddy told me if it continues that it could be a rocker arm bushing and thefront cyclinders were noted for this because of the material that their made of????
any feedback about this would be deeply appreciated
