Ok I picked up a 06 r1 with current damage. The chain had too Much slack and popped off the countersprocket.racking the case and locking up the engine.
When I brought the bike home I freed the chain and started the bike. Heard a loud rattle . So far I split the cases to replace the trans and repair the case. When I started it up rattle still there. After talking with the previous owner he had told me the engine was running perfect before the chain problem.
I went back in and replaced all The rod /main bearings aswell as the timing chain and went with a manual tensioner. Still havthisn rattle. Sounds like marbles rattleing around. I'm suspecting wrist pins.
The rattle goes away under a load while running about 4k rpm. Anyone have any ideas? Again engine was locked up at about 70mph . Other then rattle there are no signs if any issues the bike runs strong
