    I was always paranoid about the noises that my motor makes. Took it to multiple people and even just last weekend after having my rocker leak fixed i asked him if he thought it was noisy and he said hell no, yours is quite compared to most.

    Its a big twin, its going to make all kinds of noise. :)
