Hi, all. I am new to the list & need some opinions badly!
Just took delivery of a new Meanie (2004) today. As I was riding it home, I noticed a knocking coming from the area of the left side case or back cylinder. I would cruise along, say in 3rd gear, at about 2300-2500 RPM, and just applying a little throttle, the knock would start & then disappear at about the 3000 RPM level. The knock intensifies with the RPM level in any gear. I don't go over 3000 RPM due to the break-in period. At first, I thought something needed tightening, but after checking a lot of the bolts, they were fine. Any ideas?
Thanks much.
