This is my first post on here so hi! :biggrin: I've been doing up my zed for the last two years now and have recently had it on the road as my daily driver.

Recently did a cambelt change with all new pulleys and also new auxiliary belts. Didn't change the tensioner or the water pump (Probably should have done but cash was pretty tight at the time).

The engine seems to be healthy with good oil pressure and pulling well but it's started making a noise. I have made a video here https://youtu.be/HDFihg0ghoI Sounds like it might be something like a cambelt pulley but they are brand new.

Any ideas would be helpful. I guess unless it's something simple I'll have to get the whole front off again and take a better look inside..
