Hey guys, sorry I have taken the time to post any updates on my situation. I did end up taking the bike to local shop(friends) and they stated that the engine noises I was hearing was normal. Being that it is chain driven. Big relief off my shoulders. Now they did hear a rattle coming from my exhaust pipe They are samsons true dual cholos (39") and they have the non removable baffle in them, is it possible that the weld off the baffle inside broke off?? what would be the best thing to do? Does anybody know if samson would consider that a manufactures defect?? Open to all suggestions.

Thanks again for all your guy's input!!

Memo

Obviously the noise has gotten louder of late or you would not be posting.
Your friend's shop says it is normal, still have to wonder if something is going on, my Deuce is not loud at all, just normal valve train noise.

That is what mine sounds like as well and that's what was concerning me. I run the synthetic oil in as well and because it gets very hot here in AZ, I was told that it thins out more. thanks for response
