Sounds like pinking but it ain't

Got a strange problem in that when coming off the power, I get a metallic sound almost like pinking but it only happens when engine ain't under load. Definately coming from the top end. I was thinking it could be small end failure. Anyone got any thoughts ???????????????

Re: Sprockets & Chain Combination

Hope this wording makes sense to som...
