Clutch noise in first gear

Hi guys,

I'm experiencing 2 strange noises when I release the clutch and start giving throttle (i.e. when you start from standing still). Like an hammer hitting 2 times. I found a video on youtube of a guy with the same issue.

What it is it? Is that serious? Any major repair/replacement on my way?

Thank you in advance for any help guys.

You don't say the year or model of your bike? 1100/1150, abs, servo abs or non abs... But I'll buy you have standard abs and the noise you're hearing is the abs modulator activating as you move off. This is perfectly normal.

Hi Steptoe, thank you for your usual prompt help. Your words sound like good news for my wallet

The bike is a 1150gs, ABS, first registration is July 2002 (so, no servo I guess ). Would that change your advice?

Thank you again
Marco
