Okay guys/girls-
Taking my bike to get a 5k service...but besides that theres another problem. I have a very strange sound coming from my top end.
Sounds like a scraping, i can hear it clear as day after i start up and it warms up a bit. Now heres my problem, i did a new pipe, k&n filter, and a remap. Is there any way this is normal?
I dont wanna pay the stealership to look into my engine if this isnt a problem....but it worries me, because i neglected the bike during its break in and im worried that i did major damage.....please any help!
 
yeah runs great before the upgrades and after, topped off the oil, thats what i thought too, it was about, at most 1/2 qt low, i have a big as* jug so its hard to judge.
Theres another thread on here, with the same type of sound but no help was given to him, just check all the bolts etc...
I think i should just pay up....[sad]
 
doesnt sound like a primary chain, but ide check for fun. you may want to describe what you're hearing in more detail. if metal is scraping I wouldn't run it. but alot of loose components could sound like scraping. is the header/muffler, tie ends tight?
