[QUOTE="D.Wolf, post: 1447649, member: 92797"] Thanks for the info, I will look up the info for the plates. The sound is definitely coming from the lower part of the bike. If I had to guess, from the clutch. It would not be the starter as I know what a stuck starter sounds like. I also know what you mean about the front brake, the pads are slightly rubbing on the rotors which makes a different sound then what I'm getting. It only happens in first gear when engine braking or when doing slow maneuvers requiring little throttle play. If I don't turn the throttle ever so smoothly it tends to grab and kind of jerk the bike as though I gave a bit too much throttle then released, then too much then released... I know it may be hard to understand cause I'm having a hard time explaining it, just hoping someone on here has had some similar experiences or can tell me if it's normal. :) [/QUOTE]
