Hello everyone, after 3-4 years of being reliable my 250 MAR yesterday developed a new noise.

what happens is when the clutch lever is pulled in with the engine running there is a sort of knocking/graunching noise all the time, which disappears again when the clutch is released.

will strip down next weekend to have a look for anything obvious broken/damaged , but would welcome any ideas on what is causing the noise .

thanks in advance for any help.

Hello again , if anyone was interested I have taken off the clutch cover , looked at the clutch plates, springs etc.

could not see any damage or anything obvious so re-assembled everything and adjusted the cable and the noise has gone !

I have no idea what was wrong but I am relieved anyway as it was making a "£100 minimum" sort of noise , but now the clutch is back to its old self {you pull the clutch lever in and 10 minutes later the clutch disengages}

regards dave
