... That's me!
Wanted to adjust the chain a tiny bit and I noticed something terrible.
When in NEUTRAL (engine off) and just turning the rearwheel by hand there is a significant click click click sound. At first I thought it was the read wheel bearings but the click's seems to originate from the front sprocket. I am not talking about chain-chatter. If I put my finger on the centre of the sprocket and turn the rear wheel I am almost certain I can feel tiny movements that matches the clicks.
Browsed through the factory service manual (for 2004 version) I found it on page "5-93".
Have never done this before. Also looking at page 5-94 => Is it really that easy to pull out the gear assembly? Will it all fall in 50 pieces onces pulled out or is it somehow locked together? As far as I believe I need to pull all this out to get the bearing out but I hope I am mistaken
If it really IS the bearing I suspect. Apart from what the manual tells me to renew is there any advice for extra things once I get in there?
Bike is near the 80.000 km mark.
At least I hope it's a bearing and not the gearbox itself? But when not in gear it shouldn't be?...
