RE: [ST] Re: 2002 ST DOWN UNDER. SERIOUS RATTLE

Is it a continuous rattle on the overrun or a one-off when you go from accelerate to overrun?

My 2k RS has a metallic rattle from the front on the transition.  But it sounds more like a baffle or something moving in the exhaust collector.  I repatriated the bike from California so does anyone know if the CA spec models have a catalytic converter in them?

I agree with Rupert.  You can hear cam chain rattles all the time, espesh at tickover.
