Burning Smelljorgelara 05-04-2007, 03:06 PM Wednesday I was out with some friends riding pretty hard and when I took my 07 out the next day I noticed a weird burning type smell coming from my bike. I thought maybe it was just outside, but today I noticed it again. It seems to be coming from the left side of the engine and like I said almost smells like something is burning. I have ~1700 miles on my bike and I am just hoping I haven't F### it up.
Anything???
Thanks triplex76 05-05-2007, 11:06 AM perfectly normal...it's the cat...just give him sometimes to work "properly"...mine did the same as well...it needs about 1000km depending on how hard you ride to let the smell go away! jorgelara 05-06-2007, 07:01 PM Thank you sir :-) flash gordon 05-06-2007, 07:03 PM i noticed the smell too, especially when i first rode the bike. pedegalinha 05-06-2007, 08:11 PM Same smell here. I thought my clutch was burning or brakes or something. Good to see I am not the only one. I have about 1200 miles on it and it has been smelling less and less. flash gordon 05-06-2007, 10:03 PM Out of curiosity, do you guys also have a rattling sound that you can hear about 4K RPM in 1st or 2nd gear? I'm not sure if is normal engine noise or if I actually have something loose. ghoststardlj 05-09-2007, 11:57 AM Out of curiosity, do you guys also have a rattling sound that you can hear about 4K RPM in 1st or 2nd gear?

On another post, they said if you lubricate the clutch cables, that "buzzing" sound will go away. Hope this helps. | |
