Knock at start up.

This morning it was 30f out. When I started my bike it knocked 3 times ( bang, bang bang) before it settled to idle, and I could smell oil. The bike ran fine and started fine after work. It is a 09 SG with 3200mi. It still has Moble 1 20w50 in it. I have rode it in colder weather this spring and rode all my Harleys in cold weather before with no issues. I do not touch the throttle untill it settles down. Just push the starter. I have heard motors make all kinds of noises, and this sounded bad. Any clues other than take it to the dealer, who will say it's fine?
