Moderator Cynic Posted September 19, 2010 Moderator Posted September 19, 2010 Oh well, got a high frequency vibe at around 7000rpm now and down around 10mph, definitely need more throttle for comparable amounts of go so looks like i'm rebuilding the TDR's top end over the winter...

Moderator Cynic Posted September 19, 2010 Author Moderator Posted September 19, 2010 Will this mean the big end also ? I hope not, wont know till i take it down.
2 Wheels Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 I hope not, wont know till i take it down. Aye, probably not mate, with a bit of luck ! Is the noise like a high metalic rattle in the high revs and does it start to be herd when slowely giving it some throttle from idle.
Moderator drewpy Posted September 19, 2010 Moderator Posted September 19, 2010 ah well, at least it'll give you something to do over the winter

No, not any noise i can here but there is a definite vibe in the bars and some of the horses have fled the stable. She felt slower when i was out this afternoon. I'm hoping its a compression difference between the barrels.
blackhat250 Posted September 19, 2010 Posted September 19, 2010 I'm hoping its a compression difference between the barrels.

Moderator Cynic Posted September 20, 2010 Author Moderator Posted September 20, 2010 vibrations got worse today, the vibes were getting worse this morning and were bad enough on the way home to make my feet go numb. Hey ho, i was going to do the wheels over the winter, looks like its the motor instead.

Moderator Cynic Posted September 21, 2010 Author Moderator Posted September 21, 2010 May have some good news, went all over the bike today running the motor listening for noises and such. Deffinite top end rattle, slap or little end not sure but the motor don't vibrate on the stand. Looked a bit more started to piss the neighbours off a bit with revving and such . Still no real vibes. I'm thinking it may be the chain, looks ok but there is a defo tight spot and the sprockets are worn. Could be the 400mile weekend killed it and i've got hung up on the oil thing. Going to order a c/s set and some cush rubbers, no loss if it don't help. Maybe Kev distracted fate's attention
blackhat250 Posted September 21, 2010 Posted September 21, 2010 im going up to the lakes with rob, the lad who came to squires ,this saterday, Yeh i remember him [ bandit] he drank the last of the Glava" Where are you heading , in lake district,, ?

That is kinda good news Cynic,,,,,,, a top end rattle or slap- this can give bad vibrations in the bars when bike is on the move, espically at constant throttle (ie,not pulling or not engine braking) Top end that is going can be herd at its worst when the bike is started from cold and throttle is gently being applied. Dont really know how a tight spot in the chain would effect things ??

Dont really know how a tight spot in the chain would effect things ?? As a chain wears it developes a tight spot, this gets tighter and tighter. The bikes only got 9000mile so it could be the original chain (23years young). I adjusted it before i left for the squires. If the chain has tightend up with the 300miles of motorway the tight spot will be felt every time it travels over the front sprocket. Thats what i'm hoping for anyway.

A yes,,,,, then thats maby/hopefully why you were getting vibes through the pegs when on the move and now there isnt any when on the stand. Hopefully it wont all be as bad as first thaught ! good luck !
