Clutch noise in backlash

[houseofcolors]

Rivera-Primo clutch in my 03 Mastiff 107cc works as it should,, But when I let off throttle,,,in the backlash I get a chirping sound out of clutch compartment?? any ideas what this might be I bought the bike 9mo ago the seller said he just put the new clutch setup in it..

Could be a loose belt or needs a little lube. I have used belt dressing but I think some old post said something about bar soap.

Just did the hole rear wheel check an alingement used a belt tention scale. however i do get a little belt noise
but this is more of a metal cherping sound. comming from inside the clutch case
Thanks for the reply !!

Are ya sure its coming out of the clutch? top motor mount if its loose makes a similar chirping noise.

Dont know if this will help but... I had an odd chirp at one time on my 04 Pit. Turns out the spring in the compensator sprocket had broken. ??? Just a thought.

Spent a lot of time trying to locate exact place this chirping was coming from, not from top defiantly from lower part of eng. Left side inside drive housing case

It only when you let off above 20mph. only in the backlash do you hear it

Sounds logical. Same as no rubbers in the rear wheel cushdrive housing. The compensator ramps up and locks, brings the snap with it, jerks the sprockets faster than the belt rolling with the ramp and that spring slowing down the hit... now acts the cushdrive. Sound logical enough?

1. Loose belt.
2. Worn (rub both hands together, who is not equally warm?) equally are the sprocket teeth and belt tooth. The throttling of lift and load ramps the rubber up the tooth and the back down the other side.
3. The shine of the teeth, like a freshly waxed floor, you run a sneaker at it and hear the chirps.
4. Soap is the lube between parts.
5. Steel brush my shinny teef to defeat the queef?

A dry push rod and also a dry through out bearing will also make noise... Just saying
