What's a CCT and what's wrong with it in regard to the CBR?

CCT = Cam Chain Tensioner.

Honda has a history of poor tensioners. Lots of people go to manual tensioners, but they require more than just *put it on and go* like the stocker.

Certain year CBR's were prone to failure. Installing a manual tensioner fixed the problem.

I don't remember which years were affected but a quick Google search should tell you.

Edit: Fuck you guys are fast.

Mental note: Two lines or less from now on.

Cam chain tensioner. They suck on hondas, you can get a fixed one pretty cheap that cuts down on the top end rattle.

And litres aren't all that different. The power is just more abundant and shows up earlier.
