I do hear some chattering going on.
It could be mild piston slapping from a slightly worn bore and piston, but the noise sounds very random and more frequent then what I'd expect.
This leads me to believe it could also be a loose clutch basket (rivets)
Lastly, I'd check both rod bearings (aka rod play) as per the service manual, but I rather doubt that senario.
Good Luck if you decide to chase it down . . . or . . . just go enjoy it as is.
Don't aim . . . and you'll hit your target every time!
A wise man knows . . . he isn't!
Failure squared . . . equals success!

I nearly had kittens when I first fired mine up and got the the shaking up a few bolts in a coffee can sound.
I have a lot of experience of air coolled two strokes, but nothing within the last 15 years or so, so was not expecting the cacophony I was hearing.
This despite rebore and new piston, new mains and small end, big end checked very carefully for radial play.
Its due to the cooling fins acting like amplifiers, amplifying every mechanical sound in the engine.
Having said that, I am still planning to pull the barrel on mine "just for a quick look" for peace of mind.
