Your rattle could be a exhaust hum. I have the same engine but a Sinnis vista, my exhaust had another pipe that ran down the inside of the chrome and it used to hum, drove me mental too till I bought a aftermarket.
Speedos on most of the Chinese bikes are crap. I replaced mine with a digital koso, but that requires a decent amount of knowledge with wiring. Maybe not your first project.

A quick cheap easy mod is to remove the airbox and replace with a cone filter, and upjet your carb. Your bike standard usually has a 97.5 in which makes them abit lean to be good on emmisions for import. You will prob get a nice little boost in speed with a cone and a 105 jet for the money spent.

Then there's more in depth mods, bigger carb, different cams, big bore kits. But you need abit more knowledge on these and they have been discussed many times. Search K157fmi on the forums.

As for the shocks, you need to tighten the spring, I've no idea how to do this on your bike as I'm sure that will be different from mine.

Also, buy a Haynes manual. It will save your arse and wallet 50 times over the £15 to buy it..

Thanks for the input Lagerlout, much appreciated.

Since my post, that ticking is really starting to cheese me off. I'm looking around the bike and have noticed other things which require repairing i.e. the mounting for the electronic start needs replacing. The plastics around the locating screw to position the mount have cracked so it's a little loose. Also, where the throttle cable end fits into the throttle grip sleeve some of the plastic has come away.

I'm starting to think the lad that had it before me dropped it and isn't admitting it.

I bought the Haynes manual but surprisingly there are bits missing which I thought would have been obvious.

For instance, the chain (upper half) seems to be rubbing on the plastic block that sits just underneath. I can't seem to find a section on this particular issue which is covered in the manual.
