Message: [QUOTE="mmmbeergood, post: 530024, member: 38805"] I took my bike to Cycle City, in Sumter,SC (1 1/2 hr away, bypassing 2 "dealers" cause the guy there owns a kdx 200 and is super cool). He heard my engine and says his does the same thing, and it goes away (or is overpowered) with revs. He has found nothing wrong with his rod or crank bearing, and it's not the piston or jug as he's replaced all that. My compression was 150. He says that everything is fine. My chain was a little loose and that the noise I heard over rough terrain was probably chain slap, and he was right, it's gone. But I'm still wondering if anyone else has this noise, that is distincly not combustion, but sounds more like a stick being run along a picket fence (really fast) but only at idle. Thanks...
