Hello new to this site just wondering if someone could help with something. I have a new 2004 ltz 400 with about 20 hours on it ever sense it was frist ridden the engine has a noise like a knock but is not real consistant with rpm but is inside the case. It does not matter if I run it real hard or just put around the noise is still there I took it back to the dealership where I bought it and they said this is a normal noise but could not tell me what it was inside making the noise. I have always owned hondas and yamahas and I have not ever herd a noise like this if it is normal than thats cool just wanted to get some other opinions.
