Is that it? kzbin.infoI1hsDyYhvBA?feature=shared

thank you , iv got the noise , it comes and goes , and I dont feel the vibration at all the bike rides fine , but it gets more pronounced , and it does sound like its spinning and sometimes it sound like something is also spinning and gets caught and then spit out I thought maybe its the clutch disk maybe breaking up , which isn't making sense to me , but a piece of textile on that narrow shaft and when you shook it around I can hear sound like sormthing hitting a sheetmetal piece something like what that shaft was more of a rattling rather then the thud of a piston or timing chain , thank you , as soon as I head that noise you made with that worn shaft , it was the same rattle almost like a snare drum sincerely David G Schoenoff.

Hello! I have a 2004 BMW R1200GS motorcycle, and I have an issue with the clutch. Specifically, on warmer days when I ride in the city and beyond, as the engine heats up more, I can no longer shift the gearbox into neutral. It's as if it doesn't find neutral anymore and feels like something is snagging. Also, during that time, when I fully pull the clutch lever, I feel like the clutch doesn't disengage completely, and the motorcycle tends to pick up speed. Could you give me an idea of what might be defective or what I should do?

Will you be needing to remove the lower crash bars each time you change spark plugs in the future?

Replace the 6013-2RSR big bearing and seal before they fail (Replace at 30-50 thousand miles). Do this on 2005 - 2009, and 2010 without vent final drives. Just remove the bolts from the wheel carrier side and tap the entire axle out of the case. Then press off the wheel carrier and press out the bearing. Use good engineering principles. Do not press on the wrong races (Do not damage bearing). If you wait too long to replace the bearing, the bearing will fail and backwards-contaminate the pinion bearings.

Thanks for your help seeing what this noise is. I have driveshaft spline noise on front section from failed sleeve/boot. And also the textile/rod noise.

Hello just came accross your informative video,could you please tell me where to aquire the special tool,many thanks.

I am in great urgency to know exactly what I need to do to be able to remove the clutch rod because it is stuck?? Hope to hear back soon!

Changed the rod & the textile bearing with new oem parts. Easy fix, just took out the rear suspension. Noise is still the same, unfortunately...

Do you have any long term thoughts regarding perfomamce and level of satisfaction? Thank you for the helpful presentation.

How long did you need for the trip ?

I am glad I found your channel! Thanks for the info!

Good morning, Thank you for this video and these details. Having the same noise on my 2004 R1200 GS, can we disassemble this part without disassembling the clutch because I tried by removing the receiver but the part does not come ... THANKS. Steven.

Great Information!! I had a same noise problem in 2014 r1200gs Liquid Cooled 67,000km. Is the same reason on this of clutch rod textile material ? I had changed the clutch plate and pressure plate yesterday, but this noise is still alive.

Thanks for this video! What is your experience with this crash bar? In the meantime, have you heard from Outback Motortek about that collision with the crash bar and the plastic cover under the tank? On one of their installation videos (upper crash bar, kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6Cpp3aefdqEa5I , at 0:07) you can see this deformation very good. Actually, I would like to mount this crash bar on my GSA. But I don't want to tinker either...

Thank You for Posting this. It Very good Information. This isn’t the Noise I’m hearing in my 2006 R1200GS. But at least I know what that Noise is if I hear it. New Subscriber from Texas. I look forward to your other Videos. Thanks again for Posting this. If all of us GS Owners can Post things other Riders need to know, we will all be better off.👍❤️

My 1150 makes this noise

The little felt or "textile material" actually serves another purpose: on the 1150s but also the 1200s where the clutch slave can go bad when you don't put your bike in neutral (e.g. at traffic lights), the bearing will be bad over time. Then brake fluid MIGHT leak towards the clutch and not only destroy the clutch surface but also eat away the grease of the splines. Eventually, you will end up with stripped-out splines (when all the grease is gone). The felt is to somewhat stop the brake fluid (I know: for the 1200s it's hydraulic fluid)

Yup That’s the noise!

Thanks a lot for video. Please, where i can get this book you show?

Quality of materials BMW is made of is poor - for example steel - compare to Honda - this cluch Push rod in honda is made from Hi-carbon steel and it never wore....... not like in this bike...... This is real change between BMW and Japan bike - quality of steeel and hiprecision of part ( CLUE : bmw is crap)

What are your plans for the OEM bars that you removed...? I might be interested in them. I went with Touratech reinforcement bars to the OEM crash bars and I'm having issues with the plastic trim touching/rubbing also as well as other issues.

R1200gs 2004 Rear Disc Talk Price

Hello :) Except that rod noise that I think all of us has it I wanted to ask you where did you get throttle body protectors, plastic protector over the throttle body? Thank you, Andrei

I put the Outback Motortek pannier racks on mine, i like how they are not offset like the OEM so i fitted 2x 38L Lone rider bags instead of 1 wide and one skinny bag

Rattling noise is coming from the damper of gearbox input shaft

Actualmente mi moto tiene kms 161.000

Hola, mi nombre es christian, soy de argentina, y viendo tu video, entendi por donde viene el sonido del clutch. Muchas gracias, ya estaba volviendome loco el sonido del taca taca clutch. Abrazo grande desde argentina. Mi moto es una bmw gs 1200 adventure año 2009.

If I want to replace my clutch rod, would these be the right steps? 1) Remove rear wheel, 2) remove shock absorber, 3) remove clutch rod housing, 4) pull the clutch rod out, 5) insert new clutch rod with new textile, 6) reassemble everything. I have a 2005 R1200GS. I have replaced the pushrods (all were out of spec), both cam chain tensioners (springs were soft), and adjusted the valve lash. The only noise I still hear is the transmission as you described in this video.

Hello, must that felt stand heat? Could it be anything replacing it

I am very impressed, I was worried about my motorcycle when I heard the same noise, it makes sense and it seems so easy thank you very much my friend I really appreciate it you saved me a lot of money

Hello friend, I am writing to you from Chile. Ask: can I only remove the bmw1200gs clutch push rod or does it affect the disc? it's just to check your status

Hello I have a gs 1200 2007 with 29000km and never changed the final drive oil how can I tell if it's OK or damaged?

i have a 2006 R1200S, with a similar rattling noise. can i assume these engine are the same?

would my R1200c have a similar noise. I'm hearing a 'new' buzz, vibration, that I've never heard before and can not locate it. It's not bad but different. I've owned this bike for 19 years and no her 'normal' sounds. And thanks for posting the video.

Very informative as always 👍

Thank you for the detailed explanations and values!

I was looking for this, thank you for sharing 🏍

I’ve heard that a scope can be inserted to check clutch disk condition - mine works okay (‘10 GSA), but it seems harder to use two fingers lately. I use beemerbuddies on the grips though, that adds some thickness. Was curious how much clutch I have left. Guess I’ll find out one way or another.

My bike same sound now I found sound thanks for the info.

2005 GS, had the noise, but louder. It locked up on a ride. I suspect the input shaft bearing dumped its contents into the trans.

Thanks for your video, I agree with your thoughts on maintenance instead of repairs, much less painful on the wallet 😁😁. Please can you give me the bearing numbers that go into the final drive. Are they standard dimension bearings or are they specific to BMW?

Great video 👍👍

couldn't agree more.

Faine cadre😁 Like +abonat 😁

Great video very professional. Can i ask you a question? I have a 2007 bmw r1200gsa 40,000miles on bike, i changed engine oil and i found small brass looking particles in old engine oil, would you know which component could be wearing in engine , thank you

No no no

Beautiful countryside.
