NearOn Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hi, well i took my battery out yesterday and recharged it, put it back in bike, bike starts good as new, put panel back on after screwing everything back in place. Now i swear i can hear a slight knocking sound from around the area where the twin cylinders are. Could I of disturbed something by such a simple task? I dont know much about bike mechanics.Thanks for any adviceNearOn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Simple answer. No. Not just taking battery out.When did you last check the oil level? Does the sound go away after a while? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 Maybe its always been there but because you've done a little work you senses may be heightened to anything that may sound wrong I'm guilty of this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoody Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 She'll be right.You will just be listening more intently now you've had one problem.We all do it!Check Oil to satisfy yourself then get on with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NearOn Posted December 23, 2009 Author Share Posted December 23, 2009 Yeah im thinking being over sensitive, only topped up oil a month ago and have used it probs around 3 times to go somewhere local so that should be fine. Will take it out for a good ride once snow goes away, cheers for help anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
