Hello. I bought a lt125 over a month ago, and have been painstakingly trying to get it running right. So far I had to put in new cam chain tensioner guides, rings, a used head with valves, choke cable, gaskets, and I have a carb. rebuild kit waiting to be used. What had happened originally was the cam chain got loose from a reversed and ripped up cam chain guide (happened before I got the bike), the valves tapped the piston and it was a mess. I tore it all down, put it all back together, got it running great but I am not so sure about the transmission. I got it adjusted so the clutch is working right. It goes through all of the gears perfectly, even the gear for pulling and the reverse gear. What happens is, while driving in second and above when you slow down the transmission makes a whirring sound (kinda like a stick shift car when you drive in reverse). It also makes a click sound when you get on then off then on the gas again, like when you set up for a wheelie. I am not sure if something is loose or what. Everything still works as it should, just the noises that worry me. Right before I got this running my wheels locked up on my 74 atc90 while going down the street and I had to carry the back end home as I walked it. Not having good luck. I think that has a problem with the hi-lo box because when it runs and you put it into gear you can hear the engine has a load on it the same as it would if you were holding the brake in. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
