My 03 954 seems alittle noisey. The noise is in the motor and sounds like a chain rattling (kinda). Its there when im riding but goes away when I pull in the clutch. I guess it could be timing chain slap. I have 7kmi. on my bike but havent ever had the noise checked. Im wondering if anyone else has noticed this noise on their bikes and if anyone knows what it is and if its something to worry abnout.

My "02" noise was a lower cam chain guide mount bolt left loose by an illustrious Honda dealer mechanic. Could also be the automatic cam chain tensioner. Common problem with the 600'S Rich

I got a similar sound out of my 03 too. I turned on the bike, let it warm up for maybe 10-15 minutes, then took it down the street kind of hard. Redlined it once, probably for the first time ever. By the time I got home from work, I started hearing a ticking sound coming from the engine area. I thought maybe the valves are lound because the engine is hot about 218 degreees, and the oil is thinning. I waited till the next morning and the ticking sound is still there. I hope it's not bent valve. any ideas on what else it could be?

Mine started out as a ticking. I've was told it was injector noise. I have heard the injectors can create similar noise.
