BoB3rt Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Had my gsxr 750 on stands today and started it up knocked it into first so the rear wheel runs...there is some god awful 'Clunking' noise and doesnt appear to be running smoothly, like small jolts as it goes round. the front sprocket is tight, the rear wheel is lined up properly and the chain is lubed... may be a slight tight spot though?any ideas? I will try record it and post video tomoz!thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megawatt Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Check your chain for tight spots. Pull the very back of the chain straight back off the rear sprocket, any more than 3mm , chain and or sprockets are knackered!!! Look at teeth on both sprockets , are they shiny or hooked? Pix will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastanglianbiker Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 sounds like you could have a dry link on the chain somewhere.or could also be to much slack in the chain make sure its adjusted correctly and lube it see what happens then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
