Thanks bludclot
I was reading your post on your clutch yesterday with interest and was thinking that my clutch noise could be the same, ATM my biggest problem is I don't have a trusted mechanic to take it to for welding but that may only cure the rattle not the dragging so if I'm reading it right it sounds like I need a new basket or a low mile s/h one
worst bit is the warranty I had from the dealer run out 1st of Jan .... gutted :'(
I looked at some s/h ones on evil bay and I was thinking the same about mileage and seeing as this bike is one I plan on keeping I'll probably just get a new one then I could get the springs welded before I fitted it which hopefully wouldn't cost much.
The bike is showing 19k mikes ,it was 1 owner from new and all the old mots back to the first one in 07 show the mileage to appear correct and it looks like it's not been abused so I'm confused as to why that's happened at low mileage although i just found out the previous owner had just been on a tour of Italy with his mrs and full givi luggage.
