JimR Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Replacing the bearing on the sproket shaft. you should be able to stip the bottom case off and leave the head & cylinders insitu but I dont think your noise comes from that bearing, if it was well worn you would have a major oil leak there. explain more about this noise did it appear after the chain lost tension ? regards Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byronrussell Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 No it remained the same. The noise is heard even at 120KM/h. Oil is fine. It does get louder when going throught the gears exspecially from 3rd up. When driving and i close the trotle a bit it shuts up but when opening the noise starts again.

rf9rider Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Replacing this bearing on the FZR1000 needs a full engine strip down, as there are bolts underneath the head that need removing to split the cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen these kind of threads soooooooooo many times and the C+S is generally the culprit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
