    Kz550 clutch noise

    Working on the guys KZ550 to replace the starter clutch and get it running. Got starter clutch swapped out and rebuilt the carbs. Also rebuilt the clutch dampner rubbers per a tutorial on KZ RIDER. So test ride everythings great except theres a buzzing coming from the clutch as i start to release the lever and it goes away when i pull in the clutch. It sounds a lot like the sound a whining speedometer can make.
    So im thinking clutch hub bearing or new friction plates and steals, What say you guys?? Ed Ness??

    EDIT.. I shoud add the buzzing noise continues throughout the gears but changes as lever is squeezed

    NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.


    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
Working...
