chirp in primary

[ridgebob]

hey guys,
i noticed in the past couple rides i got a squeek or chirp coming from my primary. at first i thought it might be my belt, like everyone else's, but it's coming from the primary. it will squeel under acceleration and it chirps when i put it in gear at a stop light. anyone have any ideas?

first thing to check will be the chain tension

Hows the clutch pull at the lever?

I thought my primary was chirping as well, but I finally pinned the noise on my top motor mount bolt. I could have sworn it was my primary and was about to pull the cover off when I decided to check the motor mount bolt. It was definitely it.

mine started chirping right before mainshaft nut came loose....

I had the same thing as chopsteak! Top motor mount!! Amazing where you hear the noises from when it's loose!!!
