joandemma Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) Update on Knocking Pro, we had a good listen to bike and knocking noise seems to be coming from clutch area, also noise changes when the clutch is pulled in-but knocking noise still slightly evident. When we tipped bike on its side and took off side casing we noticed that we could lift basket of cluch up and down (may be 0.3mm movement) even though centre screw was tight. Should this movement be there and if not how can it be repaired. Edited August 4, 2009 by joandemma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombo46 Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 does it only do this when its in neutral? Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joandemma Posted August 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Never tried to engage any gears, was only checked in neutral. Pulling clutch basket up and down seemed to produce same knocking heard when all was assembled and running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
husky Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Have a look at the kickstart shaft gear,they often chip a tooth,which gets picked up on any of the gears in the clutch casing.It only takes a tiny piece to cause one hell of a row. Worth taking the clutch off and inspecting everything with a magnifying glass.Had this happen on 2 Gassers we've owned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biffsgasgas Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hey Joeandemma, Thats my youtube video from my bike (with a ton of hours on her). I didnt have much play up and down on this shaft to answer your question that you asked me but up and down play would cause hard shifting and possibly gear pop out. If you dont have that then no worries. Really the knock is normal and is nothing to worry about. --Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
