Also have a problem in my rear ? Like I said yesterday I just got it...It makes a load noise in the rear ? like a clanking noise...? Any idea's

Thanks, Alan

 

Put the rearend up in the air on some jack stands. Do a shake down, check hubs, axle bearings, ect
Look HERE for a break-down of where the bearings are you should pay close attention to.

 

Once again thank you. I will have to do that this weekend. Any other ideas from anyone ?

It sounds like the dreaded rear diff problem. But like stated above, check the wheel bearings first. If they are good, I would go online and get you a diff bearing kit and seal. Take the rear axle off and pull that rear diff apart to see if anything is damaged. You DONT want to run it like that, cuz if its still good, then replacing the bearings and seals will take care of it. They go from anywhere from 60-180$ on ebay.

 

So if it is not the wheel berring what will it be ? The guy I bought it from said he tried to drain and put new fluid every few rides to flush it out ? He thought maybe dirt got in it.. Also he gave me a new drivshaft for it ? said he had bought it for a spare ?
