MotoBunny86 Posted October 3, 2017 Report Share Posted October 3, 2017 oldschoolsdime92 sent me here to ask about assistance with my V-Strom. After a trip to Indianapolis over the weekend, I noticed an odd popping/knocking sound coming from the engine as I accelerate through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. If it's doing it past 3rd, I can't tell over the regular engine noise. Can't pinpoint the location since I can only hear it while I'm riding. There is currently an oil leak that I need to find and my level was a bit over the 'Low' line. Topped it off with fresh oil, but it didn't stop the noise. Has anyone encountered this before or perhaps knows what may be causing it? Any and all help will be much appreciated, thank you all.
