Default Bayou 300 engine noise

i was riding my 03 bayou out on a raod and had it full throttle in fifth gear when all of the sudden it bogged down a little , the full power came back but now it has a little what my buddy called "piston rattle" it doesn't sound healthy, but it runs just fine should i have any concerns??????

never heard of "piston rattle" but..... I have a fully rebuilt 94 bayou and never had a problem like this. Maby had water in the gas. My friends recon has a piston that you can hear slapping the sides of the cylender due to fried rings that she never changed and has TONS of smoke. IF you dont have smoke comming out of the exhaust (like a healthy bayou) then I wouldnt worry bout it.
