It was a bad weekend for the XS.. I burnt up my headlight fuse Friday night, which trashed the fuse block itself. My batteryless setup seems to be the culprit for that, so it is what it is.
After getting that all squared away, I took it for a spin. Noticed a real strange vibration on deceleration accompanied with a strange noise. Almost suspected it was a bound up chain link, so I pulled, scrubbed and degreased it. Lubed it back up, but it was not the issue.
With the bike in neutral (engine on or off) if I roll it back and forth, I can hear a knocking sound that sounds as though it is nearest the sprocket on the trans side of the chain drive setup.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? If so, any advice?
Thanks in advance!
