I feel like I have seen/heard this problem before after replacing a stator. Chuck - I am very curious to see what you figure out. I hope you get it worked out soon.

I was gonna say the 750s aren't as prone to starterclutch problems as the big hole bikes but it was worth a look. I think you're chasing phantom noises there chuck. You pulled your valve cover yet?
Josh .. me and Dale found the problem.. First there were no broken bolts in the starter clutch but only 1 out of 3 were loctited. They werent loose but they werent torqued in either. I reassembled all that and put the loctite on all 3 bolts . Rode it up to Dales work and he listened to it and suggested that maybe the clutch hub bolt was loose. I didnt think so cause i remember buying the big socket for it and was sure. Took his advise and tore into the clutch side.. Dale came by and we discovered that there are some LOOSEISH springs in the back of the hub and that we are running abit rich and he is gonna bring the guage over and we are gonna do a really anal intensive syncing and see if that helps a bit as well..It wasnt phantom noises..dale heard it as well..Thanks for the help Dale..

thank you but how do i collect said beers 1900 miles is a bit far to drive just to have a beer
as for the noise well you should rebuild your clutch basket
but it's not a you need to do it now kinda thing you can ride it this season without any problems and do it in the winter with a nice heavy duty kit
tkent posted a while back a quick fix for this at least i think it was him that posted it
also to stop it from making the rattle at idle just turn it up a few hundred RPM and it should go away
it is a very common flaw in the GS series bikes but not a fatal one
glad you found out what it was
