I have another post going regarding a surge at constant throttle, found this to be the real cause. Was very misleading.
I rotate my rear wheels and every few revolutions there is a binding. The chain even tightens up, spin past that hard spot and the chain drops back to normal tension.
Rear axle spins true. Can't find anything bent. I do hear some sort of rubbing sound from the front sprocket area, but I can't see it to diagnose. Instead of going full removal at the moment I just want to get eyes on the sprocket and see if I can tell what's going on. Maybe you guys here have had this before and can tell me?
So I started removing the flywheel cover and stopped to ask this. Can I get eyes on it by just removing the hi/low box?
I don't believe there's any bent shafts, everything spins too many revolutions between the bind/hard spot to be that. I'm guessing a bearing, or possibly the sprocket is walking on it's shaft.
Has anyone had this issue and can anyone tell me how to just get eyes on the sprocket? Thank you!
