My bike is developing a knocking sound .
It is louder than the standard exhaust note.
It is only apparent when engine is under load. Like a slapping piston. Or the sound the engine makes when labouring from under reving. Except its everywhere in the rev range. Not as apparent with a cold engine.
It has developed over 6 months of daily commuting.
Is it the end? Someone at work suggested a small end or even a timing issue, other suggested ear plugs.
