Well.
Now I am curious. Mine isn't giving off any sort of "clatter." However thinking of that prospect is a bit of a downer. The good thing is that I know that I (guess) should expect it to crop up later on.
Which leads to...what the heck is it!?
1. Is it the direct drive cogs rattlin around in their encumbrances(bearings?) & limited space?
2. Is it something that is contacting something that shouldn't be contacting that something? :wink:
3. Does it happen when on the center stand cold/hot or when loaded?
4. Does it happen when it's cold (no tick showing on the temp raster)?
5. Does it pretty much occur all the time, cold or at op-temp, center stand or no center stand?
6. It's not valve train is it?
My previous Zuki's made a lot of noises that my hondas (yes I had an XL125) and cars didn't make. My Pop had a few older diesel autos (ick) before they got slick, smooth and quiet like nowadays....However, I am not too worried about this phenom....
But I guess I should ask...What's the ~cost for "the fix" and what, more closely, to "they do" to "alleviate" the noise? Use heavier gear lube?
Would straight "bologna" pipes allow you to not hear it?! :twisted:
Just kiddin there, but, any "elaborance" would be interesting. (I know theres been other posts about this...but a quick thumbnail answer-ish thing here would be nice.)
Throw us a bone ppl!
