Hey Guys,
So I finally pulled the trigger and bought a 2006 Savage with almost 10k miles on it. I've only ridden it for about a week, and it's been great!
I've noticed a rattling noise coming from the right side of the bike in the last week. It comes and goes, but I've heard it under power, as well as at a stop. I've also noticed a small pool of oil on the engine, in front of where the choke is located. I can't see where the oil is coming from, but it's from the top of the engine somewhere.
So I wanted to ask if these are serious enough for me to take it to a shop to have them check it out, or is this normal? I just bought the bike, so I'm kinda low on funds, and would rather not have the bike sit in the shop when the weather is good.
Also, any recommendations for a bike shop in the SF Peninsula would be appreciated. Thanks!
