I think you and our forum members would like to have accurate info. maybe ask for an update from the dealer or from Honda.

Wow, didn't know that, the noise is still there it took longer for it to warm up before the noise came back. I'm just going to switch to the synthetic 10w-30 and call it a day. If it blows up it's covered.

I'll tell you a quick story, my 1982 GS1100 had been sitting for a few years, brought it into the the dealer to get a carb syn and cleaning. When i went to pick it up they told me the motor was shot that they could not get it past 3000rpm's but that they would buy it off me for $500.00/// Rode the bike home pulled the carbs with my buddy to my NOT surprise they left all 4 main jets sitting in the bowl. Back than these bikes where worked to make 1/4 mile bikes once the crank was welded and the owner was a track guy. I will leave it to your imagination what a did after that.
I good mechanic you can trust is gold.
