Wurring Clutch Noise - Help needed
 
Hi All

After sorting out my bike falling over mishaps, I've not been out for a while. When I took it out at the weekend everytime I released the clutch there was a whirring noise - pull the clutch in - noise stops, release clutch and whiring starts again. It gets louder as I speed up - any ideas???

Both mine have done that from new, not saying it's right, but they were both new bikes.

Ahh fair enough - just haven't noticed it before - have heard the fuel system going, but not from the clutch area - must just be me not riding for a few weeks and forgetting the noises D'oh

Thanks for quick responses to put my mind at rest

Have you ever heard a Ducati dry clutch? its the same thing but the noise is muffled by the oil and covers on the sv.

Welcome :-D

They all do it, possibly more as the clutch mechanism wears. The problem is that having a look generally causes more trouble than it solves as the clutch covers don't always seal up again.
