Hi All,
Just purchased my first Husaberg (07 FE450) and was a little worried about some gear\drive train noise. I have read some other threads which say this is normal, something to do with straight cut gears or something?
What I am experiencing is when travelling down a road in any gear a metallicy lashing noise comes from the left hand side of the engine. If you are doing about 50klms and pull in the clutch the noise stops until you get to about 20klms it starts again (with clutch still pulled in).
Other than that the bike performs brilliantly.
I have been riding new 1000cc road bikes for the last 10 years and am not used to hearing much in the way of engine noise.
Any advise appreciated,
Mal.
