hey guys i recently got my bike and when i start my bike on a cold start you cant really hear the knocking but when i take the choke off and then let it idle you start hearing the knocking or ticking noise coming from the ride side of the bike. I was wondering is this bad? I dont wanna mess up my bike and keep riding it. I search and some say is he cct could this be it if its coming from the ride side? THe knock goes away when i rev the bike. ALso i found a hose near the shock in the rear that was off and i think i found where it goes to but im not really sure on that. Anyone know what that back hose does? Any help would be nice thanks guys !

 

I doubt that the knock goes away when you rev it, you probally just cant hear it over the exhaust. if its a loud knock then its the cct but if its a tick its the valve timing

 

Okay thanks backyardmechanic is it okay yo Okayrode with an off timing? Also would you know anything about the hose by my rear shock?

 

the hose your talkin about might just be the blow bye tube is it hangin staight down

 

If it rattles under load at 4-5k then its the cct but i have known people that have ridden for a year with a bad one.

 

Polish man the hose is coming straight down yes it is pretty long. I see another hose that has nothing hooked up to it besides like a t shape valve that fits with the hose that is off that i am talking about. SHould i just hook them up?

and backyard sorry but i am kinda a newb when it comes to bikes what you mean underload? You mean while i ride it between 4-5k and it rattles?

Thanks guys again for the feedback

 

it sounds like the blowbye hose but i wouldnt be able to say for sure if you could post up a pic. if thats what it is you dont wanna hook it to anything

 

Okay poloshman Thanks I will try to get a pic when I'm home on Monday. What does the hose do?

 

basically when your going at 4-5k rpms yeah. you should feel it immediatly under any load if its the cct

 

at idle, does the noise go away with the bike in gear? What if you pull in the clutch?

Has anyone recently replaced the clutch, etc?
