BigSam Posted September 8, 2009 Share #1 Posted September 8, 2009 I have a 96 Royal Star Tour Classic i bought about 6months ago and it has developed a new noise. It sounds like a tire or [ame=http://www.starbikeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=873#]belt[/ame] rubbing, but only when I coast or decelerate i in gear with the clutch out. i have read the vast array of threads about "chirping" and "whining" because of the gears and clutch basket, but all these mention the noise in acceleration and not deceleration. i don't have that problem, on when coasting or slowing down. I would greatly appreicate any help or advice. Thanks, Sam p.s. i should note that I have already changed the oil, and the final drive hypoid oil, both with no change to the noise.

RandyR Posted September 8, 2009 Share #2 Posted September 8, 2009 Might be the hub pins which are know to squeak..

mbelik Posted March 19, 2012 Share #3 Posted March 19, 2012 Mine started to do the same thing on the weekend. Went for a ride and on the way home a low tone whine developed when idling. Once the clutch was pulled in or I accelerated the noise went away. What could the problem be? --- I am here: [ame=http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=-34.068159,150.798371]Google Maps[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
