i have got a 1994 kdx200 with a rattle on idle def. from the kips, today i removed the header pipe to start stripping and checked the operation of the kips and it works fine!!
from what i can see all three valves move in sequence with no problem.
could a worn but NOT broken powervalve cause this noise????
any help would be great, thanks.

They do that when working fine. They do wear out as well.

I know that when we took the actuating pin off of Kirsten's bike it stopped rattling.
