[QUOTE="Roost King, post: 152452, member: 21347"] Ok, i noticed my bike was losing the ability to rev fully so I pulled it apart. What I found shocked me. The powervalve actuating rod had come loose from the valve lever. The plastic clip had come loose and... it gets better still; the lower clip had also come loose and the rod was damaged. There was no powervalve governor damage, thankfully, and everything else was fine. I ordered the parts today and they will be in next week. And a week seems like an eternity to go without riding. So is it alright to continue riding without the powervalve functioning? I know it will hurt the performance of the bike, but will it also cause any bad things to happen to my engine? Im thinking about just removing the rod and riding with the valve closed. [/QUOTE]
