Default Taking bike to shop

I'm taking my bike into a shop tomorrow and I wanted to know if I should tell them to look at anything in particular.
I just bought it a couple of weeks ago. I rode it sunday and when I went to put it up, it ran a little rough. Sounded like the bike was weezing. (If that makes sense.) But it went away when I hit the throttle.
I plan on getting a tune-up and having him check the chain cam tensioner.
Any other suggestions???

Sounds like the carbs are dirty.

Just runs rough a little. But when I was on it, acceleration and the sound was great.

Just came back from the shop and I got bad news!![:@][:@][:@][:@]
I need a new engine. There is a thrown rod or piston of some sort. Bottom line the engine would have to be completely taken apart. The piece that had the problem goes around the crank shaft. Bear with me because I am a newbie here. So, all my terminology might not be correct.
Can anyone help me find a new engine. I got a 94 F2??? The guy at the shop said I might be able to get a F4i fuel injected engine is I got all the hoses and injectors. He said it would cost a pretty penny!

Get a second opinion or make a video with sound and post it here. That sounds a little far fetched. Did he pull the oil pan off to inspect the lower half of the motor?

He didn't take the oil pan off. As soon as I started the bke up, the noise started. It wasn't happening until after I got to the shop and started my bike back up. I'm going to see if I can make a audio clip with my cell.

Or if you want the OEM auto tensioner with gasket PM me (BRAND NEW and very easy to put on).
