Tiger Sport 660 Engine Noise After Hot Start

Wow not heard this one before. I have just traded my TS 660 which did use more oil than I was comfortable with.
I would video the problem and then email the video to the triumph factory and ask them for a comment.

PS: welcome to the forum.

 

Have you checked the oil level. There has been a lot of talk lately about the 660's losing oil. And if i remember right there was a topic on here somewhere about the noise. Also take it you start the bike without throttle or revving for at least a minute while it loads up the memory. Do hit the upload a file button bottom right corner and show the inmates your bike.

 

The older 675 motor which I have can rattle the camchain tensioner for a short while, say 10 seconds, if its not been started for a few months.
What exasperates it, is if the bike was parked on its sidestand on the left, with the tensioner being on the right.
I put this down to leakdown of engine oil with it being an hydraulic tensioner.

What temperature are you experiencing in Brazil and what grade of oil are you using?
