I have a 2019 ES (Cdn model) with 25K km, and since the weather is starting to get nice on the west coast here in the great white north, I decided to get a few maintenance items done for riding season.
I put on a set of new tires, then took the bike out to warm it up before I changed the oil (engine and final drive). Everything felt fine and bike ran well during my ~15 min ride.
After I had it nice and warm, I came home and changed the engine and final drive oil (Rotella T4 and Mobil 1 75-90 synthetic). Everything that came out looked good, and after I had all the fluids changed, I started 'er up, and put it in gear while on the center stand just to get things circulating.
Although I realize the S10 is known for making some "unique" sounds, unless I just plain missed it before, the "clunking" noise coming from the final drive seems new, and to my (admittedly untrained) ear, it doesn't sound right.
I'm hoping some of the more finely calibrated eardrums here on the forum might be willing to comment on whether this sounds normal, or if it's something I should look into further?

Appreciate any insight
