Might me be just being paranoid but...

Post by vtrjock »

Took the bike out for it's first reasonable run on Sunday and was just sat looking round the engine with it ticking over.
I'm sure there is a small and slightly high (pitch wise, but not that high) bearing noise on the RHS.
Now bare in mind I haven't been around a storm for a few years.
I've not stuck a screw driver in me tab yet and originally thought it might be the clutch, but it seems higher up like the water pump area.
Cursory thoughts with such vague information peeps?

Ignore it.
They all rattle a bit.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

I don't think you will find much if you look under it's Kilt :lol: Ignore it for now but if it gets progressively worse then rethink.

i rode mine the other day without baffles and no earplugs in, wow that sounded weird, it sounded good but you think every little unheard sound is a problem waiting to blow!. Plugs in, Baffles out in future. :lol:
