Hobscotch Posted July 28, 2011 #1 Posted July 28, 2011 After reading everything I could find about the clutch basket whine, it seems that I read a viable fix to substantially reduce the basket noise may be in changing the 2nd gen clutch basket to a 1st gen clutch basket? I forget where I saw it, but somewhere I thought I read that one of the 1st gen baskets needs 1st gen clutch parts, while the other uses the 2nd gen clutch parts. I cannot remember if the 1200 or the 1300 1st gen basket could be used with 2nd gen parts. Does anyone know which is which? Just modified my clutch last winter. No change in the whine, but my clutch parts, i.e. plates and pressure plate are in very good shape and I would rather not replace them if I do not have to do that. Thanks.
cw1263 Posted July 29, 2011 #2 Posted July 29, 2011 I put one in from a 1986 1300 quieter than original one that came with the bike. But still whinning. Just had dealership replace with what I think was an I basket noise completly gone now.
