when i start my 200x i can hear a pretty loud tapping in the motor, sounds like top end, so i figure it's the valves?? is this normal or should i be concerned, it has oil in it so?? and even after its warm it's still tapping.

..... if its not the valves, and you're sure its coming fron the top end, it might be either piston slap or a wrist pin knock.
