Definitely more of a knock or clatter than a rattle.
Sounds like its coming from the front sprocket cover.
When you touch that area, you can feel the knock.

Does it in drive and when stationary.


Check the front sprocket nut ;)
Did cross my mind, I'll take a look.

What is your idle speed set to?
Idle speed set to 1500rpm. Once the engine is hot it tends to idle at around 1800rpm

That is the wrong bracket for the bike, it should be a flat L shaped plate.  It should also be mounted on the rear foot peg hanger mounting bracket bolt, so the adjuster knob is parallel to the frame and pointing to the rear of the bike.  Contact Harris Performance, they're or were the UK importers for Ohlins, they'll be able to get you the correct bracket, or have one made.  I'll speak to you off line and you can then get it sorted  :thumbup

FZS600 Fazer / Engine Rattle

Loud rattle (almost a knock) from the engine at all engine speeds. Quieter at idle, louder on light throttle openings, almost disappears under larger throttle openings.
I'm guessing its timing chain related. Also noticed an oil leak but the bike won't have lost much more than 250ml.
Roughly 65k miles. Thoughts?
