Knocking noises; vibrations in the handlebar; oil sipping at valve lid gasket
#41
My bike doesn't sound quite like that in spite of more than 160,000 kms of determined neglect. Or maybe because of it. That knocking in your engine seems quite pronounced to me.

I don't know whether this will help, https://youtube.com/shorts/kHj4RkKYbdE
