Title: Noisy Exup
Post by: bwizz on 18 April 2014, 07:18:38 pm

Just started to use my thou again . I don't have any exup tach error code but its making quite a racket, I can even feel the clacking through the footrests.
Any ideas guys.

I'm having the same issue - it's also struggling, only a little mind, through the lower revs. Bike hasn't been used for a few months.

I've just had a geek this morning , the cables are free and adgustment is fine , only a little tightness in the exup spindle. I'll clean it up regrease and try out . I'm glad of the pictures because it was not obvious where the spacer washer came from

As the thou was running quite rough on the last trip . i have taken thge plugs out for a look at them, Only one looks to be a nice colour. would a sticky exup do this?
I checked the carb balance recently so pretty sure thats ok. I'll get some new plugs in the interim as its due for some.

Just got the thou going again today, besides the exup service, I changed the plugs / fuel filter/ blew out air filter. Seems smoother now. exup still clacks a little,
I need a longer ride to check all is well,  but seems promising. Feels huge after many weeks on my 600

Update the exup seems to working fine ,bike is running better since plugs etc. exup is still clacking, can't remember it being so noisy before?
