Re: My bike makes terrible hammering sound when idling
does it go away when you pull in the clutch?
Did you clean the tank out?!?!?!?!
Re: My bike makes terrible hammering sound when idling
It mostly does, yes. Sometimes i can still detect a hammeringsound (atleast i think so) but it's way less prominant than when idling. It's only real bad like this when it goes below 1200rpm or so.
I tried adjusting the tensioner, but it does not seem to do anything good or bad. I recently had it open and changed the headgasket, and the chain looked tight and fine. (to my knowledge)

Re: My bike makes terrible hammering sound when idling
For anyone skipping the video it's a 1981/82 engine... 1979 frame maybe,
I'd say check the valves just for gits and shiggles. Hopefully that was part of the head gasket replacement though. I assume you lined up the timing and everything on reassembly. There is a very detailed article you can find with a quick google search that will walk you through the valves.
I do wonder if a sticky spark advancer would cause this... anyone know more about this?

Update, it seems to be slightly better when i pull the clutch...
Re: My bike makes terrible hammering sound when idling
Adjust it at the clutch not the cable. 650 cluches do rattle some when proper
