new noise

[cowboi]

OK guys and lady's, i changed my front wheel bearing because i herd a noise that sounded like a bearing, BUT .... the noise is still there. im thinking either warped rotor or pads catching somehow not real sure.At 55mph it seams like a catching noise every 1.5 sec but i was hoping that someone may have been through this before and could shed some light on the subject.

and its my 96 FZR600. Thanks in advance , Brandon

No way it's a bearing, rotor or pad at that frequency. I'd say you've got a frozen chain link.

Don , that never even crossed my mind. Ill stick it on the stand tomorrow and see. Thanks

don, i cleaned and re coated each link and it was ok. nothing sticking and chain was really flexible even the o-rings looked good.
the noise is still there. going to put my cam on the bike today and see if i can record the noise. i will place it in a few different spots and maybe i can pinpoint the noise better.

Hi mate, is there any obvious signs of defects on the tyres? If the noise lnly apprenant at 55mph? or is its audiable at say 30mph just longer gaps between each noise?

Umm, just a thought....

Every 1.5 seconds..it's not rotational(tire/wheel/chain)... if that were the case it would start slow and become very fast by 55mph

How's your speedo drive cable?

ordered tires from kneedraggers and the tires look smooth , cant see any bad spots on them. as for noise i just used 55mph as a reference . the faster you go the quicker the noise is.

lubed it with speedo grease about 2 months ago and the plates on the wheel looked good when i changed the tires and fit right back in but sense the noise (and changing bearings) its been back out and cleaned and reassembled. i think i have one video with decent sound and ill upload it and maybe it will help y'all . thanks

Saludos, por si es de ayuda. Varias cosas, pastillas, aunque parezcan bien pueden estar alguna como vidrio y al rozar en sus frenos, supongo que los delanteros son flotantes, chillan. Si la cadena esta bien engrasada como dice, no debe chillar. Rodamientos, si alguno le entró agua, puede estar oxidado, pero pasa de chillido a vibración y rotura. Algunas manetas, embrague, o freno o cambio, cogen holgura con el uso y a cierta velocidad vibran y pueden hacer ruido, engrasar palancas. Tornillo o tuerca suelta, sobre todo de la matrícula, se aflojan mucho. Alguna arandela del carenado floja baila. Algún muelle flojo o suelto. Araña de carenado. Relojes. Hacer una inspección general a toda la tornillería y ver. Varilla de embrague y bola muy desgastadas chillan. Contrapesos del manillar. Espejos. Se me olvida algo seguro. Suerte.

Ah¡ Algún rodamiento interno del motor.

figured it out,.... put new pads on the front and no more noise. very strange cause there was about 1/4 left on the pads but new ones fixed it.

THANKS FRIENDS FOR ALL YOUR HELP, MERRY CHRISTMAS
