I'm having an engine noise. Need help
Okay so I'm having an engine noise from my 2001 ninja 250 and I'm getting mixed answers. Some say it's normal and others say it's not. I'm not sure if you can hear it in the video but any help is appreciated. It's got me nervous because I'm a relatively new rider

It's difficult to diagnose a sound from a video, but it sounds to me like a little valve noise. Maybe normal, or maybe a little excessive valve clearance. Do a valve adjustment and you'll know if that's the cause.
And welcome to the board! |

 Definitely don't hear that on Lucy. As a newer rider myself that would also alarm me. Thanks for posting OP in case I ever come across this now I won't freak out.
