    Ratcheting Noise

    My XTX SE started this ratcheting noise around the 365 mile mark last night. I could cruise along at 30 or 40MPH but when I stabbed the throttle hard it would make this nasty ratcheting sound right underneath me and I could feel it too.

    Manual Chain Tensioner

    What's the deal on the manual chain tensioner ?? Are they saying it has to be serviced at 500 miles or EVERY 500 miles ?. I've also read that it's a PITA to get to. Anybody have some intel on this service interval and how to get at it ??
