Rattle on start up for 10 seconds ?

Hi all
Has anyone come across this. I have a 5000 mile bike pretty much as new condition. What I am finding is when I start the bike after it's been left a day or two. So not started for 2 days. I am getting quite a loud rattle that gos up and down when I rev the bike , after 10 or 15 seconds it dies down to normal I am guessing oil has got to it. Bike runs and rides spot on. As it's a dry sump is this normal. It's not cam chain. It's on the right side/ Center of bike. Any help would be good. Thanks
