I haven't really know. I haven't had alook at the sprocket yet keep going to but then never have time.

No it doesn't make the sound on tick over or start up just when moving and its more prominent when moving slowly but still there it when going abit faster. Im gunna change the sprockets and chain and see from there if its not that to the garage it goes.

Nope I've checked that it's just about half way on the dip stick.

Looked at the chain no seized link. The tea sprocket looks ok just need to check the frount! Not been on her for a a while. I'm in proses of geting some chain lube and want to soak then chain on oil. I would say the noise is still there as I've not ridden her for a while so if I cnt find out what's up ill have to take to a garage.

Cheers guys I'll have alook. I've been told also as well as what u lot have said that it might be worn sprockets. So I'll have alook at them to. Just got a Haynes manual so I'll be tinkering haha.

Hi guys, I seem to have a clunking sound coming from some where around the engine area. I think it's coming from where the chain goes into the engine but I'm not sure. Its asif I had some thing stuck in my chain and ever time it goes round it makes a clunk and it's more at low speeds. It sounds more of a mechanical clunking to. I've checked the chain see if there is out in it and there isn't I've checked it if it's lose and it's fine. So I was woundering if any1 could shed any light on this worrying anoying sound. Hopefully ya sort of get what I mean haha.

Have you seen the 3 quarters? What's all that about? You might as well just where shorts because as we have been told full length jeans ride up! So what's the point? That's def more of just a fashion statment! I'd rather have skin than look really cool haha

Them hornees seem like a right dodgey pair off trousers haha. I'm gunna have alook see what they look like. Did they come with huge red shoes haha

36 years of riding blimy haha ive not even been riding a year haha. I think I'll have To see them first and make my mind up. But i want some leathers first tho. I've looked at them leather pants and they look good. There pretty cheap to which is good. All the ones I seem to look at are pretty exspensive and if there cheap they look awfull!

What do u think of kevlar jeans now? Think I will pass for now.

I totally agree with u Ttaskmaster. I've yet to get leathers as I've not been riding long. I've got a set of textiles at the moment but I want leathers. I've tryed my mates leathers and totally felt alot safer. I've also worn normal jeans to the shop and was alot more nervous about riding just in case I fell off. So I think this thread has made me think I think I'll pass on a very exspensive pair of jeans and put the money towards a more safer option.

I have been looking into getting some of theses fancie jeans to. Seems to me theres abit of mixed feelings which is makeing me think hmmm should i shouldnt i? To me they seem like they are better suited as short journey kit. You can buy padded protection for them as well. But if your just nipping to the shop or going for a little ride i.e for me down the marine drive to the popular cafe on the beach which is about 3 mile roughly, and if the weather is rosting hot or you dont wana have to fight to get in to your leathers they seem like a good option. Yes leather is the best and will allways be better than kevlar jeans untill such technology catches up. Wouldnt tucking the jeans into your boot help with the riding up situation? I no it would'nt look very good haha but when you get off you could just un-tuck them haha just a idea haha

haha i wil be. I love tinkering with things just hate the fact that i dont know what im doing half the time. Ive got a few good mates who know what there doing but its getting the time to borrow them from there busy lives haha so thats why i asked on here haha cheers for the advie so far any more is very welcome

Water? i no it will have water in but how do you know if you need to top it up, and where do you check to know if you need to top it up? Ive found and bought a manual so thats that question answered haha
