Valves rattling when cold?
I fix one problem just to have more problems lol. I think this bike wants to work on her more than I ride her. Anyway, this thing wants to knock when I first crank it up cold. It sounds like the valves and it very well could be. They probably need adjusting. Its not the chain tensioner. Already fixed that problem lol and this is coming from the top of the motor. Once its warm I don't hear it anymore.

I live in SC and use 20w-50 Honda oil. Now I'm pretty sure its one of two things, either A, the valves are out of adjustment or B, the oil is just thick and takes its sweet time pumping up to the top of the motor. It was 105 degrees the other day in my building when I went out to get on it so I'm not so sure on the oil being thick.
