xt600 primary drive gear
have been reading up posts on this prob( primary drive gear -woodruff key ), i have a noise that sounds like the starter motor staying engaged ( i have already checked the starter and its ok ), the noise stops in 2/3 minutes, but i have traced the sound and put my hand on engine case by the oil filter and the noise comming from there, also i am getting a knock that i hope and think is a kink in my chain, the chain is an o ring thats done 10,000miles ( i have a chain oiler fitted ) chain and sprockets due to be changed .
so, is this a big/hard job to get at, and if necessary repair/replace, or is it a job for a mecanic
i am not a mecanic, i have done my own services oil/filters/plug and tappets, done brakes, tyres/punctures.........but only in the last 8mths.
i have the parts manual and workshop manual off the hubb links.
The bike is Xt600e reg 2007, I bought it 10mths ago with 1,700miles on clock, it now has 15,000miles, oil/filters replaced every 4,000miles.
any help would be appreciated.
