Hi everyone.
I ride a 2009 Electra X.
I know that the manual states "just able to rotate" when you adjust the pushrods.
What does that mean?
To spin freely?
To spin but not so freely?
To be able to move but only when you "push" with your finger? (That means that they are adjusted tight)
I mostly adjust them towards tight, because it reduces the noise they make when the engine is working.
Also, I adjust them when cold, and the exhaust pushrod not so tight as the other.
However, I have heard many enfield riders say, "a noisy tappet, is a happy tappet".
I' d like to hear your opinions because I love my bike and I don't want to make her explode.
