So i took delivery of my 748 Today, but i had a question about my clutch.

I know that these dry clutch's are loud *******s, but when it's @ idle, it sounds like a spring is rattleing around in there, but when i take off in gear, it goes away (like normal) It's almost as loud as my FBF Forza pipes???

any ideas?

Thanks!

Sounds about right, Shazam will be along shortly to give a detailed technical answer for it.

I know it sounds loud but there isn't much to worry about - truely. When a clutch is new it does sound alot quieter. Don't expect alot of life from the dry clutch anyway. 10,000 miles would be a good lifespan for a dry clutch on your bike.

Expect to replace the basket & plates every few years - £300 or so.
