Hello there!
I own my bike for about a year now. During this period it started making more and more noises. I'll try to explain it to you
At idle you can hear a little ticking noise, doesn't sound like a big deal but it really annoys me. I think the best way to describe it is that it sounds like a valve ticking.
But.... When the engine gets to it's operating temperature, it starts to rattle when de-accelerating. When the engine is cold there is no rattle, when it gets to operating temperature it starts to rattle. I noticed that the rattle starts at about 3k rpm, going down to idle. Notice that this is under de-acceleration. I have a feeling that the little ticking noise and this rattle are somehow related but this is just a feeling.
I know what you might probably think right now: the CCT! Well, i have ordered a manual CCT. When installed it sounded a bit better i thought. But after a few kilometers the rattle returned..
My bike has 35k kilometers on it, so i decided to replace the cam chain and a new OEM CCT. Guess what.. rattle is still there. Valve clearance has been checked and adjusted where needed. With this i got the oil and oilfilter changed.
I really don't know what might cause this rattle anymore. Have any ideas?
