mbeers6 Posted April 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) Do you have any wear on the inside of the clutch cover? I have a knock coming from my engine and when I first took it apart I noticed wear on the clutch cover, but I put it down to old damage that a previous owner had repaired as there wasnt enough metal in the case to be recent. But since I have taken it apart again I decided to open the clutch pack and there was a huge amount of alloy fillings trapped in the top pressure plate. So I think that Crazybond is right about play in the main clutch bearing. No wear on inside cover, but even the fill plug had a few small shavings. I believe the shop took apart the clutch discs and looked for shavings/fillings. I only removed the entire basket as I didn't have a 12 point 7mm socket. I did check the main clutch bearing and it felt okay. No real slop just little play when I rotated it clockwise/counter clockwise which I think is normal.

craigrevo Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Inspect your gears as the tinyest bit of damage to them can cause huge knocking!! This was my bike with a little dent in the clutch basket gear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
