Hers one for the DRZ engine specialists  :thumleft:
My Drz has developed a bit of a rattle on low revs and on the rev run off,  :-[ When we rebuilt the gearbox we replaced all the bearings and cam chain, but did not touch the piston, we merely disconnected it from the conrod whilst it was still in the bore,
The bike is running fine and has its normal amount of power  :ricky:  but it has this annoying rattle (sound like a washer rattling on a bolt,) coming from the motor and it can be heard much louder coming from the air box, so what do you think it may be, do I need to strip it again and do the rings and piston or just leave it and hope it goes away.  ???
