Knocking noises; vibrations in the handlebar; oil sipping at valve lid gasket
#25
Legend, I hope the great info PeterBaron shared will help you with your diagnostic and find the proper response. One such response may be to accept that is just the way your motorcycle sounds and rides.

PekingDuck provided great insight about vibration on a CB1100, too. .

This thread has inspired me to start my motorcycle and compare its sound to the recordings posted on this thread. I may even drive a little more aggressively to see if I can sense a change in vibration from what I am accustomed to. Smile

Have a great weekend. David
2017 Honda CB1100 EX
The most sophisticated, smooth, perfectly engineered motorcycle I've ever owned. A pleasure in every way.
