kotin6 Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 Ok heres the deal. I got my shit all put back together. Im test riding it, no problems, I put it in my truck and go to my buddies to leave him my truck and ride the shee home. I stop at my buddies house and when I go to leave the fucking thing is knocking like a car about to throw a rod. I thought it was my headd but I took it off and didnt see anything wrong. I think it is coming from my case but I dont know what it could be I just changed my oil and put a whole new clutch cover on. Anyone have any Ideas?

ledofthezep Posted January 20, 2005 Report Share Posted January 20, 2005 I'd pull your clutch cover back off, you may have broken a finger off your clutch basket...happened to me before & that's why I say that. Take a look & let us know what you find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton eyed Joe Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I think the water pump can make a knocking noise as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireHead Posted January 21, 2005 Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 I think the water pump can make a knocking noise as well. 309818[/snapback] That would be my guess. It's happened to me numerous times on numerous bikes. Why anybody thinks its a good idea to make thermoplastic impellers I'll never know.

kotin6 Posted January 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2005 i did switch water pumpes with the new case. This noise is kind of loud. Also it makes the noise at idle as well as when moving. The shee seems to run fine but the noise scares me. If it is the water pump, what is it about the water pump that is making the noise. Is it loose or seized or what? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the noise speed up when you accelerate?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

23champ Posted January 23, 2005 Report Share Posted January 23, 2005 bump 310293[/snapback] If you didn't line up the water pump gears when you put it back together you may have knocked a few teeth off the plastic gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jinx44 Posted January 28, 2005 Report Share Posted January 28, 2005 PM D34. A friend of ours had the exact same thing happen and I can't remember what the hell it was. I am sure he remembers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
