Onderwerp: 	clutch problems  (XRV-LIST)

Hi folks, 

Although I am the proud owner of an @ since 1990  I still feel like the new
kid 
on the block.

However, it appears that something seem to be wrong with the clutch.
After 42000 km whenever I pull the clutch there is a strange noise inside
the 
clutch cover. The tolerance of the clutch seems to be o.k. 

Did anyone experience the same ??? 

Any proposals will be highly appreciated .

The rattling in the clutch-housing is normal on a Twin.
Even with new Twins there is some rattling.
You can hear the rattling more with a cold engine. 
Also when you pull the clutch a little the rattling becomes louder.
But it's not a problem of the Twin only. The CBR600 and CBR1000 have the same 'problem'.
There is a rumour that it's caused by Gremlins.


Greetings from The Netherlands,
Raymond Fels.
