Low idle racket - GS1100
When the bike idles extremely low (ie under 1000 rpm), the engine emits a rattling sound from the top end until engine speed increases.

Possible I would think. I have been dealing with idle issues on my 550 and when it gets down around there I noticed it too. I does immediately go away as it gets back to 1100 rpm and higher, however so I haven't been concerned. Perhaps the tensioner needs adjusting?
Cheers,
