Could also be a small end , drain the oil and look for any metal, if you find any brass chunks DO NOT RIDE IT. Also look for fine alluminum shavings.

Nah that's definitely the cct. I didn't know they recalled any of the bikes though, cuz everytime someone I know brings in an F4i to get that fixed they say they gotta eat it. And the 02 and 03 bikes do it as well. I feel so ghetto rolling around campus pass the hunnies and my bike sounds like it's got loose bearings somewhere.
