Posted: 13:35 - 01 Oct 2009 Post subject: Hoba VFR 800 Vtec - Low rev rattle/clatter. Cam chain? |
|
|
Just noticed on my '53 plate VFR that at tickover there is a very percievable tapping noise. Only happens when the revs are low and the bike doesn't feel any different when riding. I was thinking that it might be something like the cam chain tensioner or the chain might've cracked a link or something.
Any thoughts and Ideas? I'd rather dothe fixing myself as the cost of servicing on a VFR is bloody stupid..
Ta,

Or more likely, the clutch.
They can get rattly after a period of time, the clutch basket gets notched. My VFR750 sounded like a Ducati before I took the clutch basket off and burred the edges of it straight again. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.
