need help

trying to figer out what is ratlerling when i rev my engine.

it sounds like it might be somewhere near my engine.

 

[lilaidstamx]

do you have an exhaust gaurd on it?

 

[Worm]

Yeah, could be exhaust guard, the guard that covers the front sprocket rattled on mine also, could be that. Just rev it till it rattles then touch stuff and see if it stops or u can 'feel' the rattle

i've tried to find the problem but it also rattles when i'm ridding and each time i ride it, it gets worse.

yeh it happened 2 me wat u wanna do is take ur bash plate off and look if any of the main engine mounts are broken 1 of my main engine mounts for the bottom end of my mottor snapped in half i recommened u go down 2 bunnings and get som heavy duty bolts for it

 

[sick150]

thanks will do but i don't have a bash plate

 

[DDR200supermotard]

well then u dnt have 2 worry about takin it off just c if any of them are snapped

If it is getting worse then it should be easy to find. Grab a 8mm spanner and a 10mm and work your way around all the bolts until you find the loose or broken one. Or do what worm said and put some golves on and go poking around.

sometimes the springs where the muffler joins the pipe rattle, the sound travels down to the header pipe and sounds like its coming from there.

prob not the noise but worth a look.

Check the pot-rivets in the exhaust, they come loose and the exhaust rattles!
