Rattles the same, top box or not, coming from low down, I'm still thinking swing arm related

...and it will more than likely get so rattly and loose it will eventually depart from its mounting plate of its own time of choosing, which will be at the most inopportune moment. Mine decided its time was up at 70mph on a dual carriageway!

Does the rattle go away on hard acceleration?

Not really, think it might be the chain on the swingarm?

Yes, as mine does that, regardless of chain tension

Went on a trip the past weekend, the rattle sound seems to be coming and going

Thought I would open the rim inside and check at cush rubbers

I want to ask a few questions and hope someone can assist

Cush rubbers in rim

Seems there was some friction metal on metal, can this be of worn cush rubbers?, can this be the inconsistent "rattle"?

Sprocket teeth seems fine, or not?

Cush rubbers needs to be raplaced?

Thanks in advance

Bearings no play and runs smooth
Doing the tube conversion till I can get new rubbers

Sprocket looks good to me. Hows the chain itself?..

Chain seems to be the problem, seems it stretched
I believe it's common to change sprockets and chain, although sprockets seems fine
Will get prices next week
Chain and sprockets
Rear disk pads
Cush rubbers

Seems I'm going to spend some money :sad1:

Happy to report this
I changed the cush rubbers and gone is the noise, thank goodness for that
So, I'm sorted, also changed rear break pads
