#54898 gab (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 74 Clink Clang noise at High RPM 1 Year, 1 Month ago   When I run high rpm i get a clink and a clang all over useems like it's coming from under the gas tank. When I throttle down, high enough not to down shift but should probobly be in a lower gear but then the clanging starts and scares the #(#& out of me because it sounds like it's comeing from all over underneath.

When you post a question in a thread you should go back and see if anyone has answered you. It might save you some headaches. People have been answering your question http://roadstarclinic.com/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,187/func,view/id,54849/catid,4/limit,10/limitstart,210/#54803 http://roadstarclinic.com/component/option,com_fireboard/Itemid,187/func,view/catid,4/id,54897/#54897 It sounds like you are hitting the rev limiter to me.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #54902 gab (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 74 Re:Clink Clang noise at High RPM 1 Year, 1 Month ago   Definetly not Rev limiter I've hit that many times before RPM level not close to that. It's like right where you would shift for a real smooth ride but you should definetly be able to run a lot higher. This might be a better discription of the sound You know the sounds your bike makes when you shut it off and you hear those ticking and clanging of it cooling down imagine that at 5 times the volume while you riding.   Logged     Last Edit: 2007/12/11 12:23 By gab.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #54906 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13516 Re:Clink Clang noise at High RPM 1 Year, 1 Month ago   OK. Gotcha now. How many miles on your bike? What oil are you running? How much oil do you put in? How long between changes? Have you checked the transfer case level? There are 2 rollers behind the front pulley cover that can make a racket. Just things to think about. It's hard to tell whats wrong without seeing the bike. So it might be a process of elimination.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #54907 smhowse (User) NOPE, it's a Roadstar!

When I am in 5th and accelerate up an incline or go to pass without downshifting I will hear the same sound almost like a ball pien hammer hitting your heads. Just downshift and go Roadies love high rpm always keep those revs up unless you are just crus'n Steven   Logged     2005 Midnight Silverado   The administrator has disabled public write access. #54915 gab (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 74 Re:Clink Clang noise at High RPM 1 Year, 1 Month ago   00Running mobil v-twin 20-50 Syntheticd changed 2500 ago when your cruisin and slowly go faster (in the same gear) the noise starts and then gets louder as you increase speed. sahift and it goes away. 9000 miles on bike   Logged     Last Edit: 2007/12/11 14:54 By gab.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #54917 smhowse (User) NOPE, it's a Roadstar!

Please help me understand obvious I'm confused   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #54921 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13516 Re:Clink Clang noise at High RPM 1 Year, 1 Month ago   when your cruisin and slowly go faster (in the same gear) the noise starts and then gets louder as you increase speed. sahift and it goes away. That's different than what I thought you meant. You are probably cruising around one gear too high. So when you try to accelerate the motor is lugging. It's a real common problem with the Roadies. You don't equate a big ole cruiser with higer revs.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #54922 gab (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 74 Re:Clink Clang noise at High RPM 1 Year, 1 Month ago   I Understand but that's excactly where the problem is when i'm at the higher RPM I get that clanking sound.
