My 748 has got a ball and ramp style slipper clutch fitted (casoli apparently it came with the bike) think thats the correct description.When bike is running with clutch out it is very very rattly but is silent when lever is pulled in .Now am i being a numpty and this is normal or pehaps there is a bearing problem.. I now they are a bit rattly/noisy but are they normally a bit noisier being a this type of slipper clutch..
or should i just bloody get on a ride the damn thing :lol:

They are noisey and last about 12,00miles, they are even louder if you fit a vented clutch cover.
Enjoy :roll:

Just ride it...
Or get open pipes to drown the noise!!!!

Noise is inversely proportional to size of pipes fitted and amount of throttle used!! :D

My slipper clutch worked fine up to 11800 miles, although dealer ( Rant, Basr*rds) said it was in need of replacement at 5500 miles.
It got very noisy towards the end as the gap between the plate teeth and basket got bigger. Well past the service limit of 2 mm i think, but as i say it still worked fine.
Rev it and enjoy !
