Hi everyone,
I was curious if this noise I am hearing is normal or something that should make me nervous. I moved from a R1200RT to this bike, so am really unfamiliar with the noises these bikes make. What happens is, when I am go slow say in first or second gear and there is no load, neutral throttle, there is a rattle that comes from what sounds like the clutch or tranny. Accelerating or decelerating, there is no noise. When it is making this metallic rattle, if I pull the clutch in, the noise goes away. The bike only has 14K miles on so I am hoping that this noise is just one of those normal noises that BMWs make and nothing worse, but wanted to see if some of you that own these bikes experience the same thing. Thanks in advance!
Ron
