Here is what mine sounds like.

Yep but did you put it in gear and put the rear brake on and slowly let out the clutch to produce the starter chain rattle like ozzie did? All i heard was normal running and a few blips which is what it should sound like when idling and under throttle.

I still vote normal!

Sorry I took so long in getting back.. Up to my rear with a project.... At normal take off no noise that  can detect.  If I brake and run her up to 15-1800 RPM and intentionally stall her out then I get just a slight bit of similar noise but I have to abuse the clutch to get it. I guess my chain is OK...  Wish my rings were as good....

Is this a standard Fj noise?

4/4 of mine make this sound under load. Some louder than others.

1st gear, brake on, load up the clutch.  


Engine noise FJ

you have too slow idle , mine do that if my idle is less than 1100 rpm, and when iam trying to move bike below that rpm. it is starter chain rattle, not to worry
