can feel a rumble in the pegs - SV650.org

27-05-09, 10:46 AM

after a 40mile run on the motorway slowed down to 40 and started to feel a rumble in the rider foot pegs the last time i felt something like this is was a tight link in my chain which didn't go away with the clutch in or out.

with this one it happens when im no the power and goes away with the clutch in and when i slow down Ive checked my chain and it DOES need tightening but haven't got a clue what it could be

any ideas?

I can feel in my pegs rumble when the chain needs lubing it's not that is it?
Just trying sorting the slack on your chain and it might go away, other than that are your pegs secure in the mounts? Is your gear linkage loose?

Have a good look around is your best option.

check every bolt is at the correct torque. Adjust the chain, clean the chain, lube the chain. Also, check the engine oil level
