    When I cold start the bike it has this sort of clunky noise that disappears after the engine heats up. After diving into possible causes I thought it might be the cam chain tensioner but after looking up the sound of a faulty cct the sound seems a lot more subtle. The noise disappear when the...

    I hear a lot of talk of sewing machines - and maybe they are talking about the smooth engine noise when accelerating. But what the hella is this manic whistling rapid cricket noise? The valves opening and shutting? Seems from the top of the engine. Seems a bit intrusive? (97 carb)

    Can anyone help me? My 2000 blackbird has 18000 miles. A couple of days ago I began to hearing a knocking noise coming from near the bottom and middle of my bike. It seems to repeat faster, the faster I go. When I'm not moving there is no noise. Also, I don't know if it's related but, I ran...
