Author Message   Suzie Posted on Tuesday, May 22, 2007 - 11:06 pm:        i have a buzzing /humming noise comming from the transmission area. the noise will stop when im slower then 30mph or in 1st gear. what could it be? i have checked oil level and its fine. thanks   Suzie Posted on Tuesday, May 22, 2007 - 11:08 pm:        Opps. I have 95 S2 with 9000 miles on it. thanks   Natexlh1000 Posted on Tuesday, May 22, 2007 - 11:30 pm:        Primary chain? Two screws away from knowing one way or another eh?   Bad_karma Posted on Wednesday, May 23, 2007 - 02:45 am:        Suzie, Does the noise vary with engine speed or ground speed? Does it change with the clutch in or out? Joe   Suzie Posted on Wednesday, May 23, 2007 - 07:28 am:        bad_karma, its ground speed and both clutch in and out. i checked the adjustment of the chain...it hasnt loosend and looks good through the peep hole. thanks   Blake Posted on Thursday, May 24, 2007 - 03:26 am:        Something rubbing the drive belt?   Ratbuell Posted on Thursday, May 24, 2007 - 08:40 am:        I second the drivebelt motion. Check all around for something contacting it - rear fender plastic, front pulley cover...see if it changes with throttle load, too. I had a rub on my S1W, but only on decel when the slack of the belt was on the top...it would rub the inside of the fender/belt guard. Accel, no problem because the slack was on the bottom side. Also check your belt for signs of scratching/rubbing and make sure you don't have any chips or chunks missing. Doubtful, but a good excuse to check   Naustin Posted on Thursday, May 24, 2007 - 10:21 am:        Could it be a wheel bearing? Or maybe the output shaft bearing that gets cooked when the belts are too tight?   Eshardball Posted on Thursday, May 24, 2007 - 10:55 pm:        Ditto on the Mainshaft 5th bearing. Make sure the seal in the front pulley is still there and the bearing hasn't started to walk.   Ratbuell Posted on Thursday, May 24, 2007 - 11:31 pm:        My mainshaft 5th bearing went out, as the mainshaft walked towards the belt and the gears acted up (giving me 2 ratios at once, and a BIG pucker when the wheel locked up). No noise other than a slight scraping that I thought was clutch pack...   Bad_karma Posted on Monday, May 28, 2007 - 04:36 am:        Suzie, I'm interested in the cause and correction of your noise. Thanks Joe   Suzie Posted on Monday, May 28, 2007 - 01:13 pm:        i got it!!! its my belt that buzzing or humming. i jacked the rear of the bike and put it in gear. is there some sort of lube for the belt that i can try? the belt is not frade nor damaged in any way.   Bad_karma Posted on Tuesday, May 29, 2007 - 12:02 am:        Suzie, I wouldn't lube that belt. Check for alignment of belt on the pulleys and wheel alignment. With luck it will be something simple. Joe   Tattoodnscrewd Posted on Tuesday, May 29, 2007 - 12:42 am:        Also - check to make sure the belt isn't too tight ... remember - scary loose on the drive belt.
