Hi people,
I`ve been building up my bike & fitted a dry clutch.
Everything seems to be working fine, it rattles like I remember my old TZ`s used to but there is also a high pitched whining, almost whistling noise.
As I`ve never heard another NSR dry clutch, I thought I`d ask you lot if yours does the same.
Near enough everything is new clutch wise, I replaced the transmission with some spares I had as the single selector fork & associated gears had burnt & worn badly.
When I assembled it everything turned smoothly & there were no tight spots or anything contacting anything else.
Due to worrying about the noise I stripped the clutch again & checked for it rubbing on the baffle plate. I also changed the tranny oil pump as I thought it might be causing the noise.
So what I`m asking is, is it normal for a new clutch to make this noise?
Will it bed in & quieten down?
I`m thinking it may be the tranny, although it makes the noise both with the clutch engaged & disengaged & also with the bike in gear stationary & moving.
I checked the water pump also to see if it was rubbing, seems ok.
Beggining to think it may be a whine due to the primary gears being a bit tight, although seem to assemble easily enough.
Thanks in advance
Roy.
