Loud engine knocking - big end?

[keno]

It was a soft split link which I've since discovered today are not recommended for over 500 cc bikes. I'm going to get the mechanic to come to me and fit a proper split link.

No such thing as a soft split link.
softlink is for bikes over 500-600cc needs to be pressed on then soft rivet end squashed to about 2-3mm more than it was
splitlink under 500-600cc they just clip on-definitely no good for a fazer.


I would check and make sure what was put on your chain.
