Zip it! [:#] MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY ......ENGINE KNOCKING IN A CX650T
Reply Quote
This is no  small  problem, the bike  starts and  sounds  fine when cold but  when warm  a  knocking sound  can be heard from the engine.

I'm   guessing this is  a main  bearing  but  don't know.  I'd  like to do more diagnostic  testing b4 pulling the thing apart.  Perhaps  an advanced  vibration  analysis?


Any thoughts  on  pinpointing  sounds  to specific  components?

Thanks

Is it a true engine knock, or could it be the clutch basket?

It's   a  true knock I think  bc  the sound  is independent of the    clutch  position.
