So every time I start my pioneer when it's cold & been sitting for a while I get an engine rattle for maybe 2 minutes then it goes away. Is this normal or do I need to adjust my valve. I bought my machine used with only 260 miles on it. Original owner gave me first service paper work, was done at dealer & they said valves were fine.... Have 315 miles on it now. With my pioneer 700 I knew it needed the valves adjusted as I could hear them when riding, but was never noisy when cold at idle.
