Hey guys, I've owned my 98 Connie for about 6 months now and loved it. Put a few thousand miles on it and no serious problems up until this point. I was out riding with my buddy and noticed a light engine knock / tap, we got the bike the 4 miles home and drained the oil, sure enough there's some metal bits in it. Put new oil in and it seems to have gotten louder. There's not much metal in the oil but there's a few specs. First test was a bent connecting rod and as far as I can tell there isn't one. I did notice that spark plug on cylinder 4 was coated in oil and the plug connector even had some on it. I've never done engine work before so I'm looking for some guidance on what to look into / test and learn how to do. Thanks!
*Edit* Forgot to mention the knock sounds like it is from cylinder 3 or 4
