Yep I take in all you said, but my bird is still only 6 months old goddamit .......thinking back it started just before the second service about 4k.....thats when the tensioner was fitted, my 98 bird started much later, and not as noisy.
Thing is my ZZR1100......sh1t did I have one of those......was perfect in the rattle department.
Has anybody else had this problem or am I just being to fussy......how about yours m8 does it rattle?????:dunno:

Hi Keith
My name is Peter & i do not what you to think that i no a great deal about bikes because i don't. I have only had my 1997 Blackbird with 17,000 miles on the clock for 9 weeks. I have the same trouble, but only when cold, when i start from cold i get a rattle for only between 15 & 30 seconds if i judge the choke correctly it does not seem so bad. I ask the shop where i bought the bike & they said that it could be that it takes a few seconds for the OIL to circle around the Engine, which seems about right because if i start it every day the noise is less. I was also told that it could be when the fuel starts to go through the CARBY'S maybe these two are linked ie, oil & fuel. Hope this might help in some way.
Cheers Peter.
