Downtown 300 / Sudden loud noise from engine
« on: June 04, 2022, 09:37:22 AM »
Yesterday while i was driving all of the sudden loud noise started coming from engine, it sounded like it was construction worker breaking concrete. I turned the engine off and pushed the bike back home. I have enough fresh oil and new filter, checked the coolant level - all good there.. Now when i start the bike i hear this noise..

Downtown 300 / Identifying noise - Does this sound bad to You ?
« on: March 03, 2021, 02:48:29 PM »
I have just bought used Kymco Downtown 2011 300i with 46 000 kilometers.
I'm pretty happy about it - plastics are good, its goes straight, looks like it was not fallen from it, i love the acceleration, brakes, lights etc.. looks good - so far had no problems.
Only thing i have noticed is "clank" sound coming from variator housing, it happens when i accelerate (pull the throttle) from stop and when i lay off the throttle suddenly - i can hear it once or twice - sounds somewhat metallic. It happens also when the bike is on the main stand when i pull the throttle.
I have recorded the sound in order to help with identifying problem



Does anyone have experience with this sound and does it indicate serious problem? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
