Did the oil change help me? Because when I ride while the bike is cold it is good and when the oil is warm it is probably thin. Can there be an error in this?

The sound is definitely the engine. In place and when braking with the engine it's good, does it only when accelerating in load? Can it do that oil has not been changed or that the motorcycle is driving slowly?

very unlikely that bad old oil is slowing the bike. if oil was so bad, bike would be overheating and sounds would be different.


the problem COULD be in the engine, but as it's a lot of work to take it out, disassemble and check, best to eliminate systematically all other simpler causes.


For example, a new chain on bad sprockets will not solve a noise problem - send a picture of your sprockets, front and rear.


Same for the rollers, take them out and examine, send picture



you say you have tensioned the chain by the manual, still take a picture of the bike so we can see how it looks.



if you are asking for help, help us to help you by posting these pictures

Sound comes from the engine, not from the chain. And the sound is heard only when the engine is warming up. The most is to hear it when I go up the hill and add gas when it's the most to hear.It's such a hollow sound.

So oil changed and it still does it. Someone released me just has not got whatsoever. Everything I've looked at is not released, but if I fall and I can hear the sound like a mother is in something metallic.Robi it only at full I'm feeling totally unbearable, I think about 2000-3000 / ot. What's next?
