Just changed the clutches in my 04 1000rr. They were completly burnt with only 2100mi. Got them changed now im hearing a tapping sound almost like its trying to throw a rod in addition the bike will not stay cranked. What rpm should the rev be set? Also anyone with some body parts for sale let me know. Red and black model will consider changing color if the price is right and I can get rid of my slightly rashed parts. Please help guys. the bandit.

 

hi onewheelbandit,
iam not a motorcycle mechanic but did you have this noise before you changed out the clutch. if not i would go back and look at that.

 

No it ran fine. The bike ran fine for about 25mins after changing the clutches. What i think is the problem is that i did not put the gear for the oil pump back on correctly. If anyone has some diagram to follow about where this gear goes that might solve the problem. Just a note when I took the cover off to change the clutches the gear just fell off with the cover so it is possible that I do not have it in the right place.

 

i have a pdf file on a 2004 1000rr that i will email you if you will give me youe email address oline now
