help needed, clunking sound and shuddered!

sort of a duh dunishness. that enough detail.

will go out and have a look just now and maybe get a vid, need to put baffle back in so its easier to hear.

hopefully figure it out and fix it.

Chain as a rule of thumb should have 20 -30mm of play... pull your chain from behind your rear sprocket and see if it pulls away from the rear sprocket that will give a better indication whether or not its your chain and sprocket.

Thats what my experiance of what happened when i had a mysterious clunking it was the chain knocking on the bottom of the swing arm....

ok im back in now,

seems like i have a afew tight links on my chain

gave the chain a good clean and relube and it seems to run slightly smoother (on paddok stand)

will need to wait see how she handles 2moro, if all is still wrong my mate will take a look on thursday,

any other thots are still welcome, and thats everyone so far!

Have you got a scottoiler fitted??? Would be worth having a think about getting one if you havent got one fitted. You could take the cover off of the clutch (where the chain goes on my curvy its plastic dont know about the pointys) and see if anythings loose in there. When i took mine off the clutch bolt (whatever its called) was ever so loose. Just go round checking everythings tight but dont forget dont over tighten lol!

update,

it didnt do any major clunking or stuttering 2day,

But if i listened closely over the exhaust, i could hear a slight clunking click sort of sound, which increased with speed so im guessing it will be the chain then?

had a few tight links i spotted last night.

scottoiler is being planned now, and should pop round to mates 2moro and he will prob tell me strait away what it is.

Thanks to everyone!

Hi

Did you ever find out what was the problem. I think i may have the same problem. its very hard to tell where the noise is coming from.

Lots of head scratchng
