You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Hi mate welcome to Firestorm world, great underrated bikes.

Please go to workshop section and read up on the CCT issue [Cam Chain Tensioner], and take action to make sure you dont have a costly failure when the chain jumps and introduces your valves to the piston.

can be fixed for very little cost, but please dont ignore it and hope it wont happen to you :thumbup:
