you have to run the engine without the drive belt . Then have a listen , wiggle the crank shaft see if there is any play .

Thanks Bashan. I did not think it was the crankshaft either. At most it sounds like a bearing of some sort. Like the above post or in the rear section of the bike. ( wheel or the fan bearing in the CVT) When I take off, it sounds normal. There is no knocking, banging or vibration nor grinding.
What I concluded was to just ride it until a new sound or problem arises. Ride baby ride.
Thanks again for everything.

Ok, before I put the body back on I will try what you said about the belt. Will let you know what my findings are.
Thanks Tvnacman
