At roughly 11000 miles, I started to notice that the engine is quite loud when I started up cold and then as it warms up, it quiets down to its normal lovely cadence. The loud sound is coming from the area behind the engine air intake area which is where the exhaust header is. Where the header hits the exhaust pipe there are couple springs holding the exhaust on to the header. I assume there some sort of a gasket in their. Do you think it needs replacing? Do you think that is what is generating that loud engine sound at the start up and early warm up?

There is a gasket there though I do not know it's composition. Part # 707601033 @ $7.19 from cheapcycleparts.com. Possibly some expansion when hot seals it up a bit better.....:dontknow:
