Hey everyone,
I don't know if this is a noob question or not, so please bear with me.
Friday night I had to drive in my first rainstorm. It wasn't too bad but it was long enough and it still made me a little nervous. My bike did great, however.
Got home, bike sat in garage until yesterday afternoon when I got a chance to clean her up. Rode her around the apartment parking lot for a few minutes to check that everything is ok. It was then that I heard the drive chain chattering after engaging clutch, then braking.
Drove the cage to work today, but tonight once back home I lubed the cycle chain and checked tension, tightened a bit, then test drove again, same thing.
I'd like to ride the bike to work tomorrow but if this sort of thing is not normal I don't want to risk it.
And, I've googled, I've searched the forum, but when you don't know exactly what to search for, you're kind of screwed. Or maybe I've just never heard it before?
So....IS THIS NORMAL????
Thanks everyone.
