I also started having the same problem since the first minute I drove my bike after the first service, but not before the first service. So I went to the service centre and got the tappet adjusted as per the Service Manual standards and I personally checked the the tappet valve clearance(0.8mm & 0.18mm), but the problem is still there.I want to know if your problem is resolved, and if yes how was it fixed?

It seems RE is unaware of why the new engine is making tappet noise... I am having the same problem in my Meteor as well... service center ppl are totally confused and don't know how to resolve this noise issue... they asked me to ride for another 1000 kms... and noise increased now they say we will do it in 2nd service... but I am worried that engine might split apart...

It is irritational to have this slight tappet sound but I thought it is normal or not an malfunction because every possible meteor rider have this sound like classic 350 and thats normal in that engine

Doug · Answer

My 2022 Meteor is also noisy. There is the tappet ticking but there is another clanking sound that I hear when accelerating hard. I honestly think it is just a trait of this engine. It runs great just a little noisy.
