I was asking myself the same question; google provided an answer to what backlash is... but is there a setting somewhere on the bike for that?

Hello!

 

Newbie here. I had the same issue last season already, putting list of service things together and was wondering - did this solve the problem?

 

For me - I notice the rattle noise only when engine gets to working temp, but not when its still cold.
