#517179 Penguin (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3307 Belt guard rattle 5 Years, 7 Months ago   Noticed that the last few times I've had the Roadie out over sharp bumps I hear a clanking sound from the rear. I think from what iI can tell it's the belt guard hitting the rear pulley cause i hear the same sound if i tap on the guard. The two bolts seem tight, what am I missing?   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #517181 jd750ace (User) Front toward enemy Platinum Boarder Posts: 18763 Re:Belt guard rattle 5 Years, 7 Months ago   I had to bend the tabs on the swingarm slightly for mine to clear when it did that.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #517182 greyphart (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 6701 Re:Belt guard rattle 5 Years, 7 Months ago   The belt guard on my 07' is rubber mounted. Took mine off and ditched the rubber. Put a small washer inside the rear mount hole to keep it centered and torqued it down. No clank.

The washers smash the rubber down and hold that guard in place and the rattle stopped.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #527272 MO770 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 35 Re:Belt guard rattle 5 Years, 6 Months ago   I didn't even think about hard mounting it. I took a piece of the adhesive "loop" side from Velcro (black) and stuck it to the swingarm where the guard rattled against it. No more rattle.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #527424 Dchopper73 (User) FAT is where its at! Platinum Boarder Posts: 1467 Re:Belt guard rattle 5 Years, 6 Months ago   Penguin, I had the same issue on my 07. I took the guard off completely. Its been 9000miles since.... no problems yet. PLUS its mice to be able to SEE the belt and check it for wear.   Logged     http://dchoppercustoms.com   The administrator has disabled public write access.
