Vulcan Classic 1700 Knocking
I have a knocking noise under the tank for quite some time and I found to day that the rubber engine mounts , I think are not wright.
Also the ignition Key silver ring is popping out of it place all the time, I have to push it back in place. Here some pictures of what I found because I need your expertise. I cant believe that the engine adjustment went off by themselves. Look at the front left engine damper,it is 1/8 '' from the bracket and the right damper is squeeze tight on the right bracket. And the right rear bracket adjustment is nut flush with the frame like the manual said. I try to upload picture but your system will not load the size of my jpeg or Bitmap or Zip?

Are you the original owner of the bike ? Maybe the engine has been out and not fitted back correctly ?
I fixed the ignition surround rattle by putting an elastic band around it (underneath out of sight). |

No, I only have it for 2 years and that noise was there from the ferst day.
It look like a big job to replace those rubber mounts and readjust the engine. The bike had 38,000 Kl when Y got it, now I have 60,000 kl. It is a 2013 and the engine run fine. It is to bad that the forum system cannot take my pictures. |
