Got at rattle around 3000 RPMs that’s driving me nuts
I can replicate in the garage by revving it up. Sounds like it’s coming from under the tank above the Air Filter. Can’t find anything loose. Any suggeations on what it can be?
on a side note, I started hearing this after I changed the oil. Used Mobile 1 Vtwin this time. At first I was attributing it to th oil (still not ruling it out). Wondering if I should drain and refill with either Dino oil or go back to SYN3.

I've tried a LOT of oils, and when it comes to noise Mobil 1 20-50 V-Twin is by far the worst.
By far the best is Spectro 25-60 dino oil. Really.

I found part of the rattle, the worst of it anyhow. I was missing a nut on the exhaust bolt that is right under the transmission cover. It’s still noisey, but the bad rattle is gone.
Im going to see how badly this Mobil 1 bugs me, if it continues to, I will change it. So many people on here swear by Mobile 1, but I am certainly not a fan. If I keep it in till the next change, it won’t be going back in.
