Clutch noise?
08/01/05 at 10:18:19

Hello all,
I was wondering about a noise that seems to be coming from my clutch area on the left side of the engine. It sounds like a rainstick being turned over or like the pouring of Rice Krispies cereal. Anyway, it happens when I let off the throttle and goes away when I get back on the throttle or when I pull in the clutch lever. Oil level is good in the sight gauge and i don't have any driveability problems. The bike gets up and goes with no problem, no slipping or anything. What is the likely source of this noise and how to correct it. It is a '95 Savage with about 28K miles I've had it about a year with no problems.

Thanx,
Eric

Ibelieve it sounds like your camshaft is worn or your valves need to be adjusted good luck!
