Clicking noise when backing up engine off?
I have about 1800 miles on my 07 and there is a clicking noise when i back up sounds like its coming from the rear axle. It only does it in reverse. Is this something i should be concerned about or not even worry about?

RE: Clicking noise when backing up engine off?
I have the same thing...and posted it...and got the same response (about the spokes) So much for valuable information on this board
I believe it's just the belt..the dealer told me the same thing....if you can back the bike up (get someone to do it for you), and push on the belt a little, the noise will stop.
Hope this helps

PS..was told it's normal and nothing to worry about

I would be willing to bet most of us didn't even know the 6speed trans came with reverse.
Other than that, have you checked the tension of the belt.
I am thinking it may be a little too tight.
