@SpookDog hey man, I checked the Kickstart everything still good on it and cleaned it up but the noise is still there

@SpookDog will definitely keep you posted, yes I'm also sure it's that just gotta take a look at it the weekend, it shouldn't damage anything right? Just for 2 days I need to use the bike for work so it needs to wait till Saturday

@SpookDog I actually turned the Kickstarter while the bike was idling and normally it would make a noise but it didn't so I actually do think it might be that,I'll get a new gasket and pull the casing off to check the Kickstart shot man

@Calum but the noise is literally only coming from the clutch side, my guess is it's either something to do with the waterpump or even the flywheel, I'll put the cover off tomorrow and check the flywheel, I know on my mates husky hes flywheel key broke and it made a similar noise but I'll definitely get back to you guys as soon as I know something, really appreciate the time guys thank you

@SpookDog I really appreciate the time thank you, my one mate says he thinks it's something to do with waterpump but the impella still works and seems fine

@Tristan hey guys I'm sending the link through now with my bike idling and the noise, would be greatly appreciated if you guys could take a listen and let me know what you think

@SpookDog okay cool I'll get to that tomorrow some time but how exactly do I post it so you guys can see?

@SpookDog no it's a constant noise wether I pull the clutch in or not or wether I'm in gear or not obviously just can't hear it while I'm riding cause of the higher revs but when it idles or I stop at a red light it makes the noise I really can't figure it out another guy today told me that it's normal for a dt but it's weird that it only came after a month after I rebuilt it, it was quiet few days ago

@Calum yes I checked that already and I checked the impella aswell and its working fine, I got a feeling it could be maybe a bearing but again I'm not 100% sure

@Calum thanks man but have you got any idea what it could be? It really doesn't sound healthy, I changed my oil to a much better one aswell and that didn't do anything but when I tried to source the problem out I found a weird Grey putty like kind of stuff in the casing so I don't know what that could be

Hi all, I have a old yamaha dt 125r 1983 that I rebuilt and converted to motard but I have only been riding it for a month with no problems till the other day I heard my clutch is making a bad noise almost like something is lose but when I opened my clutch I saw everything was fine besides my notched basket, could it be that the clutch is run in? I don't think it could be but some people said it's possible, just really annoying when I idle the bike it has that lose noise but it hasn't done anything to the power or problem starting, everything seems right and works fine it's just it has that noise
Any advice or help will be greatly appreciated thanks in advance
Tristan.
