A rattle which goes away when the clutch is pulled in indicates a problem with the clutch. Could be a little loose around the backplate from popping wheelies. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

No they are gear primary. Even the oil boilers were. ____________________ a.k.a 'Geri'

Thanks all.
End can is standard. I thought about pinking so I've gone for some Hi Ron optimax fuel stuff and it didn't make a difference.
I must admit I struggled to here the sound with the back wheel off the ground but it was in the garage so the engine noise was louder I think.
Like I say the bike looks mint and I know they're good at cleaning things up in these places but it's clearly not seen bad weather. I'm pretty sure who ever owned it before me rode it hard because the tires that were on it were VERY well used. When I picked it up they'd put a new set of Qualifiers on it for me .
The clutch would make sense as well I suppose but when you pull the clutch in there is no longer a load on the engine so that would possibly indicate pinking.
Apart from this rattle the engine sounds beautiful. I can't believe the Growl you get from the Ram air on these bikes. I had a Triumph Sprint 955i before this. It was a good bike but completely different league really. ____________________ Went like this.. 43 years old(2013) decided to do CBT to get a 125 for new job. Bought 2011 YBR, loved it for three months then hated it because it was too god damn slow. Did DAS 4 months later then bought RF600 Loved it, sold it bought Bandit 1200(K3). EFFIN lOVED IT. Wanted something a bit more sporty so got Triumph Sprint ST 955i (53). Not sporty enough so now on my GSXR 1000 K3 and absolutely love it. 1 year down the line, nearly died way too many times on this bike. Sold it. Had a 6 month break. Missed biking so now, Aug 2019 have a 1999 ZX9r. What a beauty she is too. |

On my R1 there was a rattle that was cured by balancing the carbs.They were quite a long way out for a bike that only had 2500 miles on the bores.
But on the injected GSXRs it mean checking the balance of the throttle bodies.Easily done with the correct equipment but only after the engine has been serviced ____________________ Just talk bikes.What else is there?

Smashing.
I'll drop it off at the dealer this Saturday. Probably won't pick it up till the following Saturday but I'll report back and see what they do with it.
I forgot to mention when i got the bike there was half a pint of oil more than there should have been in the bike. The oil isn't new but I drained it down just below the maximum line where it's stayed put.
I just hope this hasn't caused too much compression and bent some metal ____________________ Went like this.. 43 years old(2013) decided to do CBT to get a 125 for new job.
