I've been riding my new (old GS850GLZ) bike for about a month now and I started to hear a new noise, a rattle, as if something was comming loose. After some investigation I found it was comming from one of my pipes. If you hit it. It sounds like there's a bolt or the like bouncing around in there. Whats up with that?

Not likely you'll be able to "shake out" the offending part(s). Some have mentioned taking the muffler(s) apart along the factory seam however, I have not done this and would hate to suggest it as a means of "fixing" things. Anything can be fixed but time and money usually come into play.
I would suggest looking for another set of pipes. Stock Harley take off pipes have been use and seem to work well.
Just a thought...Comment
