Hi

My TwinShock was rattling on the over run as you describe, it turned out to be a badly worn small end bearing, I am not suggesting this is the fault your bike has but I would check for wear in this bearing as soon as I could, as in my case I had to split the crank and replace the connecting rod complete with all the bearings,

Aha but better to be warned than to go blindly un known and wreck a whole motor.

Could even be a broken piston,seen that before the skirt comes off and the dam thing stil runs,better to get some small bad news than no news at all.

Handsome little bike you have there, so glad your on the mend :biglaugha: sounds like a plan and at that price got to be worth doing, good luck with your rebuild.
