Bummer

Is the noise coming from the front of the primary? My bike has 750 miles on it and I'm taking it to shop Wed because their is a rattling sound coming form the front of the primary. I happened to run in to one of the shops techs this weekend and he said something was loose on/in the clutch. That sucks.
 
Could also be the compensator sprocket in the primary. It hasn't happened to me, knock on wood, but that's exactly how I have read that failure described many times before. Not a bad fix...providing it didn't do any collateral damage. If you lost the compensator, find out if they will upgrade to the SE compensator. That's how they should have been built anyway. Search this forum for the SE comp, lots of good info out there. Good luck, Sir.
 
I questioned the compensator when I dropped it off, they are suppose to check it too. But, most of the noise is coming out of the right side of the tranny.
 
I broke the drive belt a few years back and took it to my local HD shop and for some reason they got into the clutch, and when they went back with it the did not use new bolts with the loctight on them and consequently the bolts backed out and gave me a heck of a noise. Lucky I got it in and new bolts put in under warranty. Scarry.
 
Just got a call from Gruene. Transmission input shaft bearing? Parts on order, should have it back together sometime next week. Drag.
