2008 Hayabusa Engine noise diagnosis
« on: December 07, 2015, 09:14:34 PM »
I'm looking to get another Busa and found a 2008 for a really good price. The owner states that the bike runs, rides, and shifts smooth but Has a ticking sound on the right while in neutral. It's been dropped and the right fairing has rash. Could the tick be the sign of a spun bearing or is it something else?

The oil will tell you if its a spun bearing.

What I meant by that was..................I would leave that bike alone and find another, quieter motorcycle.

The gen2 busa had a problem with the clutch spring boss (bolts) coming loose and hitting the inside of the clutch cover..

Easy enuf to verify............if that is it.  I would also check oil pressure at 2K rpms...........should read about 25 lbs. after a 10 minute ride.
