Hi
I installed a dump pipe last week so i could here the engine better but noticed a rattling sound at idle after it warms up. The bike runs great with plenty of power. If i place a rag over the outlet the noise is gone. it is not loud and can only be heard when i am not facing the dump outlet. has anyone else heard this and is it normal? Huh?

turbos do have a different noise to a point
they are slightly spinning at idle just enough to make a noise
i think youll be fine
its when it makes a real racket that youd need to worry (like a can with rocks in it)

Yea, it's not very loud at all, just a new sound.
Thanks again Pinky!
