If you don't want it I'll buy it! It's worth $350 in parts. You'll
have to be more specific about the knocking . Is it a soft knock or
loud, does it immediately go away above idle or gradually go away?
If you hold the revs at say 2000 rpm do you hear the same sound? How
about at 2500 rpm - holding it steady? How about on acceleration?

Hey all- I'm new to the group, glad to be here! I'm looking for some
outside opinion regarding a 550 I'm looking into buying for a
project. The 550 in question only has 3,200 original miles and is in
near mint condition for $350, the only problem is the engine has a
knocking noise while idle. I know a knocking noise can mean a variety
of things gone wrong but weighing the possibilities, would this
investment be worth my while? I AM willing to put time into the bike,
but not looking to get too carried away. Thanks in advance for any
guidance!!
