R1 Rod knocking?

Hey guys I have a knocking sound coming from my r1 and I'm not too sure what is the culprit. I have listened and listened to r1 after r1 and even other motorcycles and my bikes knock doesn't sound like any of the other bikes I've listened to. Most of the rod knocks i've heard are a more sharp sound, and mine is a dull sound almost like piston slap.

Opinions?
