I guess I did post to the end - didn't go to the second page, Duh.
I tried that link but it takes you to the front of the Ventures tech library. The article is titled "Removing the Clutch Basket"

I meant Joe's experience. I tried to post on the end of my original thread. I will try again.
Thanks guys.

Hello All - I realize I have the distinct chirp, and it may be close to the "scream". Thanks so much for all the responses.
I have a follow up question. What exactly is an "I" basket and how does it differ from the original equipment straight cut gears? How does it reduce the chirp? I found some great pictures of a clutch replacement procedure here,
http://www.venturers.org/Tech_Library/index.php?action=article&cat_id=002006&id=309
I think I understand where the chirp is coming from.
I have searched the internet for bad stuff about MotorKote and can not find anything but anecdotal "Do not use additives". I have never used additives since my high school auto shop teacher said not to, but this chirp is annoying and I am willing to take a leap of faith on Dave's experience with this stuff.
Again, thanks all - I will let you know how the Motorkote works, good,bad, or indifferent.

Just bought a 2005 Tour Deluxe. Notice the distinct whine/whistle at lower speeds and during acceleration. Seems to go away if I pull in the clutch or let off the throttle, not so noticable on the freeway. This appears to be a common phenomenon and I have seen it attributed to Clutch, transmission, and/or shaft. Looking for help here as to what exactly this is and what I need to do to have this fixed or reduced (if possible) and if I cant do it myself, how much it should cost and who can fix it. Thanks for ANY help. Paul

Mine is cut off. Like to be able to move my foot back and forth. Rust bullet will keep anything from rusting and provides a super hard coating. Can paint it over surface rust. (Distributed by Summit racing) Later.
