I have just purchased a XS 650 that had been sitting for a long time and I noticed something that I did not hear when I purchased it. The engine is making a tinging noise like a bell or some type of metal hitting metal when it is running. It does not knock and there is no blow bye or smoke coming from the exhaust. I sounds to be coming from the top end and I am not really even sure if it is in the motor or up in the tank tunnel. Thought I would ask since this is my first run in with the bike I am hoping not to have to rebuild the motor yet. The bike has 14,000 miles right now I changed the oil and the first plug was clean but the second had some metal shavings built up on the magnet.
Thanks for any Info, Nick
