mealexme Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 there is a rattling sound on my bike when i accelerate. it is only a ped so dont ask what revs or what gear it happens at, cuz i have no idea.it sounds like a loose bolt or something, ut i have checked all bolts and i cannot pinpoint the noise as it usually appears when it is under strain (accelerating up hill etc)help?

Ian G Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 it sound like it could be the clutch friction plates my brother had a similar prob on his ped Quote
mealexme Posted June 5, 2010 Author Posted June 5, 2010 ok. how does this cause a rattle though?and do you know if it will cause any damage to anything else if it is left, or if i can just leave it untill it doesnt work anymore? Quote
Guest Posted June 5, 2010 Posted June 5, 2010 untill it doesnt work anymore? If its the clutch plates .... thats what'll happen ..... Quote
mealexme Posted June 5, 2010 Author Posted June 5, 2010 figured lol, but will it destroy anything else?like if you dont top up with oil, it wont just destroy the oil, it will destroy the whole engine-sort of thing.I mean, would it destroy the flywheel etc? Quote
mealexme Posted June 5, 2010 Author Posted June 5, 2010 no idea. But imagine the worse case scenario....erm... fireballs rain from the sky, and then the earth implodes? Quote
mealexme Posted June 15, 2010 Author Posted June 15, 2010 think the noise is coming from the kick start. havnt opened it up to have a look yet, but what should i look for when i do? Quote
mealexme Posted June 15, 2010 Author Posted June 15, 2010 lol. now i cant even get the feckin screws off! i swear one is glued on! I havegot the other two, but this one i had to use a load of WD40 and a whole lot of force and it STILL WONT BUDGE!!! Quote
