If it's on a pod filter, they can also sound very clattery with induction noise.
I had a similar situation with my 1961 A7SS. After taking advice and being told "They all do that" and that it was nothing to worry about it seized a big end, snapped the conrod and the remains of it smashed through the underside of the crank case.Tony A wrote: ↑Sun Jun 20, 2021 1:39 pmThank you everyone for your comments; I will take them all on board and go through the bike stem to stern. Hopefully I can report back after identifying the culprit failing that a good set or ear plugs may help!
I just pray I do not get in a similar situation as I found myself in 40 odd years ago with a rattly BSA A65; mechanic at the old Nelson & Fords shop in Basildon came out with the "Nah mate they all do that" line................shortly before the bottom end decided to dismantle its self at 60mph on the A127 !
