I apologize in advance...
For probably resetting the counter.
But this noise has me worried, for a few reasons.
• it does not improve after the engine comes up to temp (video was taken after a long ride, engine is hot hot)
• throttle blip does not make it go away
• its loud and sharp and kind of metallic sounding (like loud loud)
• it's coming from the left side of the engine, far from the CCT
• Fully independent of clutch lever operation
• seems to be coming from the top left area of the engine, maybe headers? It's hard to tell
2026 SP at 3k miles.
Maybe an exhaust leak?
I just installed the Yosh pipe last week. I torqued all the header bolts nice and tight, maybe the gaskets are toast?
Just hoping it's not top end related.
