when my KTM gets hot it sometimes makes a terrible racket from the motor.
the same noise as you get on start up.
the oil light flickers too.
rev it a bit,  and the noise goes away.
recently had the bike serviced (a few thousand back),  oil level is fine.
am a bit concerned...
any ideas on what it could be,  or is this normal?
bike is going to have both base gaskets replaced soon -  a weep from the rear cylinder,
so would like to have this sorted at the same time...
any words of wisdom appreciated.
