Eddy Posted June 24, 2008 Share #1 Posted June 24, 2008 I just rode my Venture home from the dealer after the clutch basket exchange on the gears. All I can say is I "think" I can hear a small difference and it might just be in my head because I can definitely still hear the whine and chirping. It was a warranty repair and the basket that went in looked exactly like the one that came out. Even the mechanic couldn't tell the difference. I think it's a sound I'll have to live with until I trade it to a wing or a newer version of the Venture without the whine. Eddie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Terror Posted June 24, 2008 Share #2 Posted June 24, 2008 I had no change in mine. Im not sure what my next move will be. Al I know is there isnt a Yammy dealer that is worth a damn within 50 mile of me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LeeAT Posted June 24, 2008 Share #3 Posted June 24, 2008 Most of the whine in mine was a loose bearing in the final drive, you may want to have the dealer check for that. Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GigaWhiskey Posted June 24, 2008 Share #4 Posted June 24, 2008 One day I might hear what this whine is on a 2nd gen. Mine has a whine but that is because of the straight cut gears (I think). But yanno, I totally dig that whine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill04 Posted June 24, 2008 Share #5 Posted June 24, 2008 Not sure about that whine ,but I did change both tires for two Dunlop Elite 3, cleaned and re-greased the whole rear end and the drive shaft joints as well aligned and re torqued everything and this baby is running smooth and no more noise . No clicking or growling and the noise I had ,some kind of whining must of come from the Brickstones . I only ear the sound of the HD pipes ,the clutch I don't have a problem whit so I don't know about that whining everyone is talking about .

Trainwreck68 Posted June 25, 2008 Share #6 Posted June 25, 2008 I don't notice a whine on my bike either. My 2 previous bikes had straight cut gears also, maybe I'm used to it. Of course I had a Harley too so ALL noises sound normal to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
