  • Engine sound

    Hello guys,

    I own a Gixxer for the past 6 months. And now a sudden engine noise appears during staring. It fades a little when the engine is hot but doesn't go away. I had my valve clearance checked and it was okay.

    Anybody know what the issue is. Its not a timing chain issue as it was replaced a week ago from the svc.

    The video link is given below:
