    Need opinion on un-diagnosed rattle

    Check this out, what do you figure the rattle is, I'm thinking maybe clutch. Any Ideas? I'm going to go look at it at noon today.

    Could be a clutch rattle, lean it to the right and you bathe the clutch with more oil?

      Could also be cam chain. If the adjuster sticks and doesn't take up slack. Holding it to the right? Huh???

        I just got back from looking at it. It has the older style carbs in it so I think the motor might have been changed. Paint and decals not pretty. All the Vetter stuff is pretty nice though. I'm going to let someone else do that one.

          older style???

          no kick starter in the picture, only the 79 has a kick starter and VM slide carbs.
          could they be big smooth bore slide carbs?
          or possibly a 79 head

            Yeah, his pic is pretty bad but I thought it had the same carbs as the 1979. You can't read the label on the neck, I failed to think about checking for a kick starter. They do not have the square vaccuum carbs like on a 1980 and newer. The tops are rectangular. Side covers look probably unmolested and have no stripes but of course it could have been painted.
