Strange warbling noise from below

[jmasin]

Ok guys, this might be a really stupid one, I dunno...

When in neutral, with the clutch out (hand off of clutch) I get this low warbling (?) noise from underneath the engine. It's hard to describe, but sounds like a very muffled few large marbles rattling around in a tin can. It goes away when I pull in the clutch lever.

Is this just normal drive train noise? Just curious what you all think. Its my new baby, so I could very well be way too sensitive to noises

Cheers.

Mine does the same thing, someone said after a good bit of miles it quiets down. Anyone else hear of this?

My clutch rattle noise has only gotton louder since putting miles on it. It's so loud now i can still hear it while criusing at low speeds of under 35mph. Also the fuel pump that makes the bizzz buzzz noice when you flick the switch still buzzes quite a bit after the bikes running. This is a new noise that started around 1500miles. Does this sound normal?

My 02 makes the same noise as did my 'bird. that owners group indicated it was normal.

Please see the WARNING about the clutch in my post , it is from the UK Hayabusa group. The noise is NOT normal!

If it gets too bad check it out but every busa I've around had a little noise.

anyone else have this noise. I have it on my 04 with 14,000 kms. I am worried it is a "rod bearing"

more comments please, thanks
