Just purchased 2003 VTX 1800 Retro.
6000 miles
In 1st & 2nd gear I hear what sounds like a rattling / chattering noise from what sounds like the right side of the bike. Sounds like it´s coming from the engine.

It´s a very tinny, vibration type of noise like something is loose but coming from inside the engine.

Plenty of oil and runs fantastic. Goes away as you get to the higher gears.

Help !
