Howdy everyone! Just joined the community a few moments ago. I’m amidst a troubleshooting problem and was hoping some fellow Fz owners would answer my call. This Fz6 has 23k miles and is an 2008.
When revving my Fz6, you can hear a clanking noise after every blow off of the exhaust. To me, it seems the sound is resonating from the back end not front. Whatever this noise is, it’s consistent at the same rpm’s regardless of how high I rev. I know in video, sound is sound; but you can 100% hear it clearly after every single rev. Here is a video for reference.
The sound occurs whether or not the clutch is pulled. While I’m in gear and riding however I’ve noticed not any change of performance or ride. My best guesses currently are a clogged cat/leaking exhaust (since I swear so heavily it sounds back end) tensioner or potentially valves. I’ve also not replaced the sparks yet so I’m not sure if this could be misfire related.
Any help is extremely helpful! Gotta do some trouble shooting today!
