Noisey Transmission
« on: June 06, 2011, 03:15:24 PM »
Hey,
I have a 81 CB750 Custom and noticed it's started getting a noise like a rattle when it's at idle in neutral. If I pull in the clutch lever the noise stops. When I let go, it starts again. I don't here the rattle when I'm in gear and riding at low or high speeds. Anyone know what the rattle is and if I need to fix, adjust, or ignore it? Thanks.

Might need to adjust your clutch?
