POORBOY350 Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 (edited) ever since i adjusted my clutch like 3 weeks ago, i havent been able to figure out what this noise is. i thought it was the clutch being too tight or smtn, but im pretty sure its not. i took the cover back off and turned the clutch basket or just turned the motor over slowely and it just made this bad ass screetching noise. like metal to metal. its so bad you can feel it wen you barely turn it over. im pretty sure the noise is coming from the front bottom of the motor(which is right where the crank is :sad: . but i've never had to rebuild a shee before so im not that formiliar with the bottom end on them. it wasnt doin this before i adjusted the clutch. what could this noise be? how do i check for what it is? do i have to tear it down and get into bottom end? what could have caused this noise? cause i didnt see where i did anything major. its just a 'dry screetching' noise from front not positive on top or bottom.pretty sure closer to bottom. but it has a full tank of gas in it and its just sittin there is killing me. if yal could give me some pointers or smtn it would be great. or if yal have had this happen. id really rather work on it myself. 2 strokes are pretty simple but like i said i've never been in the bottom end of a banshee. but thanks for any help im readdy to ride. ps. it sounds pretty damn serious. to be honest with yal.

FASTOYS Posted December 4, 2008 Report Share Posted December 4, 2008 A dry screeching noise is definetly NOT a good thing. Might want to pull your clutch cover off, pull the spark plugs out, and turn the motor over with a ratchet on the crankshaft nut. Start pulling the clutch basket off and see whether the noise is coming from the clutch or crank area. Your welcome to call me if you need help.
