Message: [QUOTE="E-Ticket, post: 248270, member: 20985"] Believe it or not... but mechanical/vibration noises can sound horrendous and be in the weirdest places. A friend's DRZ-400 was making "death-rattle" noises - sounded horrible - just like the engine was about make some very expensive internal modifications to itself. The problem? A loose mounting bolt on the skid plate!!! Yup. It was allowing a mounting clamp to vibrate and resonate against the bottom of the frame and engine cases. Sounded just grim. 30 seconds with a wrench. And the "engine" was "fixed." So yah.... watch your assumptions and check *everything*....! Cheers! [/QUOTE]
