Noise...Is the clutch almost toast???

LOL, if it only has 16,000 something miles on it. I'm pushing 75,000. And yeah, the bike runs great, but the noise is very very loud, violent, shakes the bike, and is definitely not normal. I'm hoping a loose or broken clutch bold or something. Someone said shaft bairings may be bad, which would be a tranny rebuild. I'm hoping its nothing, and might dig into it this weekend.

 

Sorry about that. I've got a cold and I'm not the sharpest tool right now. I meant to reference the original poster, who said he has only 16K on his bike.

The oil pump chain is slapping the case. replace this and it will shut up!!:tongue:

 

Anybody replace the chain? Did it solve the problem?
