    FZ1 weird buzzing from chain/front sprocket/gearbox

    Hello everyone. I'm new here, sorry if I missed any posting rules. So, the problem is: recently I've noticed a weird buzzing sound coming from the front sprocket area. The first time was when I was riding. Mostly at 2-3-4th gears, when the engine's load is sort of synced with the constant...

    Clutch noise?

    Hi guys just a quick one. I’m wondering if any of you have had this noise.. So the bike runs ok through the gears, up and down etc. When I’m stationary and pull in the clutch and put it into 1st gear it’s fine. When I start to let the clutch out as the load goes on and the bike starts to...

    Cam chain tensioner

    Hi guys So I have a 2006 fz1n 18,000 miles and it's making a ticking or clicking noise etc on cold start up. After 30 seconds or less the noise goes. I'm thinking it's not holding oil pressure in the tensioner and until it's run for 10-30 seconds I'm getting the noise. My questions are.. Do I...

    HELP! Loud clattering noise

    I could really use some help diagnosing this new very loud noise my 06 is making. On a recent ride on the interstate running between 80-90mph I had 6th gear fall out on me into a false neutral. It didn't drop into 5th but would drop out of 6th and hit the rev limiter. I pulled in the clutch and...

    Weird ticking noise when key is turned "on"

    I have a fast ticking noise before the bike is running when I turn the key to the on position. I believe it may be the exup valve sticking, the noise starts out fast then slows down then stops right before I start the bike. Anyone have any ideas what this could be?

    Guanella Pass, CO

    John & I rode up today to check out some fall colors :) Still trying to figure out what I did here. I was going into a corner, I know it was a bit hot, but I never felt like I was out of control, and never drifted out of my lane, but then I heard this scraping...

    Timing chain noise.

    I think my chain is starting to get noisy. When you shut the engine down you can hear a rattle. From time to time I hear it when riding. Anyone else have a similar noise? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsBr_TMxRd4
