That sounds worrying Rodge.
Can it be too much slack in the timing chain?
A worn timing chain will also result in retarded valve timing, which makes the engine run sluggish.

think the bang is from one way clutch on starter as had the same noise on my ttr250 years ago and apparently a sign of the sprag clutch worn,bought new one and that sorted it,but will have to dig a bit deeper as bike runs rough at the mo since i parked it up 6 weeks ago.have cleaned carbs and that improved it slightly but still not as crisp as it usually is and a lot of popping on the over run.
