Are there any issues with the Honda Rincon 650?

Broken timing chain, stuck valve. Take the valve cover off and see what it looks like. Rincons was good from random cam eating or rear bearing going bad. Most of the time they would still run but lack power though. They was also known for the auto cam chain adjuster to let loose and then work again (jump time).

Why does my Honda Rincon have low power?

They was also known for the auto cam chain adjuster to let loose and then work again (jump time). Again, most of the time it would still start and be low on power. Had a honda Rincon awhile back that started but idled rough and had absolutely zero power and bogged out whenever you gave it throttle. Replaced camshaft and totally cleared up issue.

Do you need a cam chain on a Honda 680?

Being a Honda mechanic many years ago, it just doesn’t make sense that a 2000 mile machine should need a cam chain. The newer 680 engine has a different cam chain and tensioner, so hopefully the early cam chain failure has been fixed. Seems a lot of people on here are hearing the same noise with very low miles.

What kind of tensioner does a Honda Rincon use?

Recently picked up a totally abused 05 Rincon. The engine had a loud rattle that would come and go depending on speed and temperature of the engine. The rattle was something that I just was not willing to live with. After reading several post on here, I removed the tensioner and checked that it was free and operated properly.
