hey gents. just wondering if any 350f fans out there have had a similar issue and can offer insight:
ive got a ping. ping ping ping ddd-ing ding ding ding going on. during acceleration, and when i grab the clutch for an up shift. it sounds like a loose bolt rattling around, but its not! the bike is tight front to rear. i mean absolutely perfect. the ping has been going on for about 6 months. she runs and rides great. timing is spot on. i pulled the oil pan and dug around with a magnet thinking something may have come loose in the tranny. nothing. forks are rebuilt. sounds like its coming from the front end but there is nothing loose or rattling anywhere. when i put the bike up on the center stand i can go through all the gears and not hear it. shaking it around while its not running i cant hear it. im stumped. anyone out there have a 350f that just pinged? its starting to drive me nuts after running through it front to back and not finding anything! thanks guys, happy memorial day.
