    Cheers - he don't need the bit now

    I'll still be going that way if you need an ear to listen for the rattle if you want to meet me there?

    Upto you? Or just pop it into somewhere like bike treads they'll be able to advise and not far from you

    hi fireblade i am more used to vintage bikes but from the symtoms you have listed (no noise when clutch engaged or in nuetral) i would be looking at the transmission,have you checked the gearbox oil ?. if it was the cam chain i would expect to hear the noise all the time,hope its nothing to expensive . welcome to wb by the way. regards steve
