Hi all,
I noticed a slight whining today. It starts at just over 40mph. If I take it up to,say, 60mph it gets slightly louder. If I pull in the clutch and shut the throttle, it seems to be tied to road speed rather than engine revs. This makes me think it originates from the gearbox or final drive. There was a slight chirp from the box or FD once today.
Fluid levels are fine with oils that seem quite clear, no unusual vibrations or anything like that.
Having read the threads on FD failures and accepting that it would be too big a job for me, I’d like to get the bike into a shop that knows the score with these bikes to diagnose and repair/replace the faulty bits.
Anybody on here have any recommendations on who to take it to here in NE Scotland? Thanks in advance.
Ian
