noisy clutch?
« on: 15 November 2016, 07:10:42 pm »
fellers...my clutch is noisier with the lever out than when its in, not a lot, and i know theres bound to be a bit because the plates are disengaged..is it worth whipping the cover off to have a gander this weekend or are they all like that? i thought the biting point was a bit high when i bought it but its fine in use and i was comparing it to my zzr11 at the time which only has 6k on the clock (fazer has 30)

Don't worry orgi they all do it
the night i was born, lord the moon stood a fire red., my poor mother her crying,
she said the gypsy was right, and she fell right dead

The rattle is fixable, I sorted mine:

Unfortunately the pictures have disappeared, basically I had the springs in the back of the clutch basket welded to stop them rattling, noise still gone to this day.
is it clean enough?
