I doubt it sounded like that new, so no, it’s not normal. This is a clutch problem with the spring plate allowing too much slack. New clutch pack will solve it. BMW knows it was a problem yet because it doesn’t cause a failure issue, they did not put a recall on it.
Hi there, yeah I know this is video so old but I was wondering if you still have the bike? I have the same on mine. I believe it's nothing to do with the clutch but your cam chain tensioner thats stuck and not doing its job correctly...with the risk of chain jump, chewing up your cogs and damaging your valve train....
No, it's not the cam chain, the upgraded cam chain recall was already completed. The clutch basket rattles while in neutral and the clutch released. I still have the bike and love it. I have just learned to live with it and frankly don't even notice it any more. The bike runs and rides great.
No, I sold the bike about a year ago but it isn't the Cam Chain. The tensioner was replaced under a recall several years ago. This is the Clutch Basket rattling at just the right RPM only when in neutral and when the clutch is disengaged.
Hi! Do you hear any rattling noises and feel any vibrations when decelerating? I have changed the cam tensioner and I have that rattling noise when it's in neutral and clutch released which I have to live with, but I still hear that rattling noise when decelerating. Is that normal?
It's nothing to do with the Cam Tensioner, it's the Clutch Basket rattling at just the right RPM. It really doesn't bother me because it only does this in neutral with the clutch disengaged. The only time you would hear it is at a light for example if you are in neutral which I never do. It doesn't have any affect on the performance of the bike so it's not worth worrying about.
I don't think so. I haven't replaced it yet because I'm not sure exactly what the problem is. The BMW Dealership is telling me it's a common problem most likely caused by the Clutch Basket but it doesn't affect the performance at all so "live with it". I do plan to replace the clutch pack over the winter just because it is not that expensive and pretty easy to do myself. Some people have told me this has helped their K1200 quiet down.
Yup, I've come to that conclusion. I replaced the clutch pack with the Barnett Clutch and no change in the rattle. The bike runs like a top and I've just learned to live with it.
It's not a "Miss", it's just the clutch basket rattling when the clutch is not engaged. Not all of them do this but I think most do. It's just annoying but doesn't affect the performance. BMW should have addressed this in a recall, it makes their bike sound like junk.

Its not aceptable that a manufacturer like BMW knowing this is not puting a recall on this

Was it the pilot bearing?

What happened to your comments on the pressure washer vid?
I shut them off, Active finally decided to do the right thing and replace the unit
@@fredburmer7306 glad it worked out for you. Have you see the obsessed garage review on the 2.0?
@@lmSteveo Yes, it looks like a good value. When mine poops out, I will probably pick up one of those.
Wow mine is not that loud but I. Also hear mine a little bit when riding to
Clutch basket ,common problem in K bikes
