Belt guard rattle 11 Months, 1 Week ago
|
|
|
Noticed that the last few times I've had the Roadie out over sharp bumps I hear a clanking sound from the rear. I think from what iI can tell it's the belt guard hitting the rear pulley cause i hear the same sound if i tap on the guard. The two bolts seem tight, what am I missing?

I had to bend the tabs on the swingarm slightly for mine to clear when it did that.  |

The belt guard on my 07' is rubber mounted. Took mine off and ditched the rubber. Put a small washer inside the rear mount hole to keep it centered and torqued it down. No clank.

I took two washer and put over the rubber and retightened. The washers smash the rubber down and hold that guard in place
and the rattle stopped.

I didn't even think about hard mounting it. I took a piece of the adhesive "loop" side from Velcro (black) and stuck it to the swingarm where the guard rattled against it. No more rattle.

Penguin, I had the same issue on my 07. I took the guard off completely. Its been 9000miles since.... no problems yet. PLUS its mice to be able to SEE the belt and check it for wear.
