fatbastard Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 I've had a problem with my kick start not engaging but thats fixed now. The Clutch is making a wirring noise until you engage a tiny bit of clutch. Ive taken the casing off and removed clutch and refited but still making the noise. The noise is louder then normal. I was hoping to use the bike tomorrow so any ideas or will it be ok to use ? Any advice greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkin trials Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 you dont say what bike you have, if its a Gas Gas that is normal if its not then it sounds like you might have chipped a tooth on ths clutch basket when the kickstart problem occurred, as long as there is no bits of the kickstart gear or chips off the teeth floating about it should be ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbastard Posted March 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 It's a 2009 txt pro 250 , it does appear to ride ok. Just the whirring noise until clutch is engaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 It's a 2009 txt pro 250 , it does appear to ride ok. Just the whirring noise until clutch is engaged. "engaged" is a bit of a misnomer. Do you mean it makes noise whth lever out(clutch engaged), or lever in(lever engaged and clutch disengeged)?

fatbastard Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 It makes a noise until you pull the clutch lever in about 3mm then it ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkin trials Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 ALL Gas Gas pro clutches rattle until you pull the lever, the fingers that work the clutch plates are what rattle That being said I bought a 2010 300 off Shirty that was once Dibs' bike and there is no rattle whatsoever, I am putting that down to the fact "Kev" had the bike set up proper for Dibs, but as I said in previous post rattles when you are not pulling the lever are normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatbastard Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Yeh mine was probably set up correctly as it didn't make a noise until I removed the clutch fixing the kick start. Seemed to quieten down today as the day went on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatabeta Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 They all do it even the most sorted Gassers rattle inc Raga's bike It's the clutch basket inside the casing and the engine vibration so they pretty much have to rattle.

fatbastard Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 When I took my to a trial ended up it was quieter than most. Seems to get quieter or you just don't notice it as much after a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
