01 making weird noise idle
So I just pulled my bike out of winter storage, and I noticed when idling it's got quite the chatter to it. It doesn't do it when I'm on the bike with the clutch in, or riding. Just when I'm letting it warm up or sit.
Any ideas?
EDIT: Link fixed. My bad.

Possibly your oil has separated over the winter and now is not properly lubricating the top end until it gets warmed up so it's clicking? That'd be my guess if you haven't ridden it all winter. Symptoms don't sound like a bad CCTL and I don't think that would happen from just sitting either. My F4i is kind of clicky/rattley too, I think part of it is just a little rattle from my ape cct and the rest is normal valve lash these bikes have.

change your oil and filter
check torque on all exhaust connections
if you have a manual CCT make sure it's not over tightened or to loose
it being associated with the clutch being in or not.... is it coming from the upper or lower area of the engine???
if lower it is coming from the clutch area or trans area??? use a screw driver for a to pin point the area ... use it as a hearing tool
