About a week ago, I changed my engine oil after 3.000 miles. I went over to my friend's and he did it for me.
I used Suzuki 4-cycle motor oil with their filter. Instruction we found from online said use 2 and a half quarts of oil.
We used his racing stand, drained, changed oil filter(we poured some oil in it) and than we used 2 and a half quarts of oil.
We ran about few minutes in nutural. Made sure it wasn't leaking. Then I rode around about 5 minutes to check the oil level.
The oil was still in low side, we poured another a half quart and it reached about half way.
After I hung out at friend's 30 minutes or so, I was riding back home and heard this noise(not very loud) that I never heard before from my bike. It's like metallic vibrating sound with pretty fast cycle.
I thought I was too cautious and hearing things.
Today, I took my bike out after a week and went for a ride. And there's that NOISE! What the ****???
My friend is very experienced rider. I don't think he screwed up the oil change. Then again, I don't understand what's going on.
The motorcycle drives fine. Just that **** annoying sound.
Anybody? Any idea??
