Title: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Six95 on September 30, 2009, 02:31:31 AM Why is it some monsters have that really nice sounding whine (supercharger-ish) whilst others don't.
Is it a problem with there bikes or is it some secret bling? It's not particular to any engine type either. Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: sydmonster on September 30, 2009, 02:37:21 AM few things here, timing belt tention, clutch wear, type of exhausts.. etc.. my open belts cant compete with my clutch or exhausts for noise, but every now and then they peak through.

It's been in the shop for a few weeks now waiting on new bearings. Looks like it was a bearing on the shaft that drives the cam belts. I no likey this noise.
Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Spider on September 30, 2009, 11:26:31 AM is this when accelerating on engine braking (gently)?
Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Six95 on September 30, 2009, 01:18:06 PM When accelerating - easy or hard
Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Six95 on September 30, 2009, 01:18:58 PM oh, and faintly when at idle too
Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Betty on September 30, 2009, 01:32:21 PM Maybe some of those rare bevel drive Monsters? :-X
Have you noticed it on an Ozmo bike ... I'm a bit worried a problem I am not even aware of. Anybody that has seen me ride knows I don't have a supercharger [cheeky] Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Six95 on September 30, 2009, 05:57:51 PM Haven't noticed it on any ozmo bikes.
I really noticed it when we went to the concourse. Everyone was using Victoria road as a drag strip and there were some pleasant sounding whines, some louder than others. Is it an open belt cover thing do you think? Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine??

Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Justo on October 01, 2009, 01:57:45 PM Mine does that when going from 2nd down to 1st coming into a stop. 550km on the bike. I thought it was just breaking in. As I havnt been above 6000rpms on it either. pfft pffft. yep. i know. patiently waiting to hit the 1000km mark.
Does sound kinda cool but weird... But is it good????? Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Betty on October 01, 2009, 02:10:06 PM Mine does that when going from 2nd down to 1st coming into a stop. Is this while braking? Could be different. Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Justo on October 01, 2009, 02:33:55 PM Is this while braking? Could be different. Nope. Just gearing down. And only in first. Definately engine noise. No brakes. Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: FIFO on October 01, 2009, 03:22:11 PM Hey Justo That's why a lot of us wear ear plugs for [laugh] Same as my 4wd turn up the MP3 and sub woofer [laugh] cures allot If it's running OK no oil leaks and no real big crunchy munchy sounds. :) Just leave it. Mine makes a different engine noise weekly and more worrying after i have worked on it. [roll] I have concluded it's a Ducati thing. ;) Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: dragonworld. on October 01, 2009, 05:30:37 PM When the missus/girlfriend sees you ogling the extremely well built and attractive young female wearing THAT "Little Black Dress" oh so well, and walking/strutting her stuff( [bow_down] ), and starts having a sook about THAT tart (You know what I mean dontcha?? [evil] )
Is that what you would call a "Gear driven whine"?? [thumbsup] [cheeky] [laugh] Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: Spider on October 02, 2009, 12:26:16 AM it's when the missus see's my credit card bill and says "what's all these international transactions"
and I say "just gear for the bike" and then it starts..... Title: Re: Gear Driven Whine?? Post by: monstermick58 on October 11, 2009, 08:58:05 PM MMM........Gear driven wine.......
