Black wing Posted October 4, 2013 Share #3 Posted October 4, 2013 my fans eaten a spark plug wire and made a bit of noise doing it, just look around for anything that may have come loose and gotten near the blades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V7Goose Posted October 4, 2013 Share #4 Posted October 4, 2013 I have absolutely no idea what bike you have, but on 2nd gens I have seen small sticks get blown in there, the front AIS vacuum hose move into the way, and various parts from the front of the bikes drop into the fan area. All of these can either just hit the edge of the fan, making noise, or often completely block it from moving. Takes a careful visual inspection with light and inspection mirror to find some of the stuff. Start by simply sticking your fingers in there on a cold engine and turning the fan manually to see if it is hitting something. Goose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loosebiker Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share #5 Posted October 5, 2013 Thanks for all the replys. After checking the fan I think the armature is going bad. I only here the noise when the fan starts up and again when it stops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
