Aight so last night I come home from finally getting a little practice in after nearly 6 months of hanging low. I come back home... park my bike... open my garage... then I push it into the garage... as I'm pushing it I hear a ticking sound coming from what seems to be the motor... I don't think its the chain and its definitly not the bearing or anything... It sounds like its coming from down low in the engine area.

The bike was in neutral as I was pushing it... and I couldn't hear anything weird when the bike was running...

Any ideas as to what this could be?

Are they speed ticks? Will they make my bike go faster?

The motor wasn't runnin when you heard the sound right?
If it wasn't, I would worry about it too much. My 750 makes all kinds of sounds when I ride. Most likely if it is clickin sound when you push it, it might be the chain clickin, or the front brakes makin noise.

Now that I think of it my gixxer used to click when I pushed it, but it went away.

Yeah... the bike was not on... and it was in neutral. I was thinking it was a rod at first... but then I figured that couldn't be it since the engine wasn't even engaged.

Its just one of those weird sounds bikes make. I'll ride my bike until things start fallin off, or blows up.

Hahahahahahaha!!!


Thanks man... that's exactly what I was needing to hear.

ticking is cool, its the knocking you need to look out for.
