I have got a rattle that is driving me nuts. I sat down and tightened for about an hour not finding anything loose and it is still happening. I only hear it on decel but it's a metallic rattling.
Or I wonder if I'm just going crazy? Anyone know if a rattling sound is first sign of insanity?

Nope. It appears to be doing it clutch out on decel. Best I can figure Is engine shifts on decel and is maybe rubbing against a heatshield or something. Taking it to shop on Saturday till I find it.
Mine had the similar sound, turns out it was a metal bracket on the rear fender plastic. Its between the splash guard and rear fender. I changed my tailight and forgot to tighten this metal bracket so it was making this annoying noise.
I had a similar rattle a while back, turned out to be one of the little rubbers on the heat shield of the exhaust had decided it had enough and left so the tab would vibrate at certain revs and was really f***ing annoying until I found out what was causing it
I had a heat shield bracket break off on mine where the lower pipe extends aft of the collector. Luckily, I was at work... and I have a TIG welder there that I can play with.
A few weeks ago I went to lock my helmet on the lock and it moved. I'm like WTF so grabbed it and it fell off. Completely sheered off and I hadn't been anywhere near it with mods
So an update. Dropped bike off at mountain motorsports on June 23rd. My claim is now on the 3rd persons desk and we are over 1 month in to replace a $200 part...
Suzuki cant seem to decide whether to fix it or not and just keeps asking for more pictures and transferring it to someone else.
