Clunky FZ6

Hi,

I had the chain and sprockets changed a few days ago on my FZ6 as they were all rusty and worn out (20k miles and probably never changed).

Since the service there is a noise I dont remember having heard before. Whenever I release the throttle and twist it again there is a"clunk" noise coming from the lower part of the bike. It happens when I am on 1st and 2nd for sure, it might happen on the other ones as well but I cant hear it. This is not the clunk you hear when changing gear, this happens when riding at normal speeds and when I engage the clutch and twist the throttle.

Is this something someone has already experienced?

thx

Sounds like you might have too much chain slack.
