I called Kawasaki headquarters. The tech had no ideas about the clanking and the loud whining. I asked him if it was possible for him to talk to a drivetrain designer for the 650. He said yes, and that he'd call me when he had an answer. I'll let you guys know the minute I know.
Thanks.

 

Any word from the kawi boys yet?

 

I just left him a message requesting a status update. He has yet to return my call.
Thanks.
