Since I got the bike, I'm starting a new thread off of my questioning if rebuilding the xx9 motors are economical.
Short story - Original owner suspected over-rev going into a turn back in 2015, motor started "pinging" or "knocking". Pulled over and hasn't been ran or looked at since.
I'm starting with draining the oil into a clean pan, inspecting the screen, and cracking the oil filter open, but beyond that this is a little new to me.
Should I be hesitant to crank it over with the plugs removed to listen for anything in particular? There's no way to easily look at the bottom end is there?
Thanks
