Noise from rear of primary
« on: May 23, 2010, 02:51:52 PM »

You don't say when the noise is happening.  While rolling?  All the time?  A noise like "something is bouncing around inside" the primary is enough description, however, to know it should be looked at and it shouldn't be ridden until you know what's going on.  Get it looked at.

It sure seems like the MOCO has lost there way in a number of ways....  Issues like these.....denial at all levels.....and all with a dose of arrogance.  I cannot see myself purchasing a new bike from them for a long long time - if ever.  And at a time when they need sales more than ever.  Quality cannot turn around on a dime, but attitudes and customer service can turn around on a dime.  But I suspect they won't.......   :nixweiss:

They're not big enough to bail out either.  So no resurrection and rebirth on the gov't teat.  Or at least likely not.  Thank god we can build our own from spare parts  :drink: :huepfenlol2: .

It makes this noise all the time nothing you do stops it. As soon as I heard it I shut it off and called my son for a trailer.. It does not matter if it is in gear or out of gear, stopoped or rolling same noise all the time...

Unfortunately the only thing you can know for sure is that you can't know for sure what it is until someone looks inside.

I still think that would have been the perfect use for all the spare green SEEG guts.

Did we ever come up with what was making that noise. In my 2010 BLUU SEUC I have this same clacking noise that is driving me nut's. I'm going on my summer vacation in two weeks and my dealer said they are booked till July 4th. They told me to just bring the bike in and leave it for two weeks and maybe they will get to it. I have noticed it getting louder and louder. It does sound like something rolling around in the primary???

I have had that noise in my primary on the 09 SERG and both times it was the compensator bolt came loose and the primary chain would not rachet up on its own, Dealer fixed both times. Oh and it is now going in for the third time as the primary chain is to tight now.   Doc

Well I took it in last night to the local dealer and they are going into the Primary. The Head Tech said it sounded like Piston Slap but that is not the problem and I told them to go over that whole Primary because of compensator issues and chain tensioner issues. They probably will tell me they didn't find anything but mystically the noise will go away.

Just got a call from dealer and they said they found no defects in the Primary area. They suspect Piston Slap due to a tight flywheel and they have told me that the bike will be ok for my trip but when I get back they want to tear into the top end and  check the pistons and go into the flywheel. They stated that it could possibly be a engine change. Wow my 08 was oil leaks and now on my 10 is internal dimensions. Anyone else out there had this specific issue on there SEUC?

The service department recently ordered cylinders and pistons for my 2010 SECU due to piston slap.

Did they correct the problem in the Fly Wheel before they put  those new Cylinders and Pistons into it?
