Hello everyone,
I am new to the site and a new motorcycle owner. I have a 1980 xs400 special with 5600 miles that I just picked up a few weeks ago as my first bike. I've taken it for a few rides and it seems to run good. The only problem I've found, and I don't even know if it's a problem, is in my exhaust pipe on the left side of my bike sounds like it has a rattle. The best way to describe it is it sounds like a bb inside of a soda can. I was wondering if anyone has ever heard this and if it is ok or if there is a problem. I plan on having it looked over in a week or two just to make sure everything else is ok.
Thanks for any help anyone can give me.
