Default Engine rattle

Hey guys and gals, has anyone noticed the relationship between your motor sounding a bit rattle like when your oil is starting to break down. I haven't had any problems with my bike but I have noticed that after taking it on a few long cruises the oil seems to start breaking down or something and the motor gets a tad noisy then i change the oil and I'm back in business with a relatively quiet zx-7,lol. just wondering if anyone else uses this as an indication of oil change time or what kind of mileage before changes do you use normally. I know these things run hot so do they use oil faster than others.
