mine seems to be coming from the primary . i could be wrong though , i'm looking forward to a picture .

may be it will help someone

i actually think it should help out , while i was loading the sled this morning i noticed the noise was coming from the secondary . while riding it sounds like the primary . who knows though . it doesnt sound like that difficult of a fix for the secondary possibly it will quiet it down some .

My clutch rattles like crazy too...sounds like the primary. It rattles at idle and when driving at slower speeds. It really drives me nuts!

If your problem is a boring metallic noise coming from the secondary like happened to me, this is the solution i used.

I found this 2 pics taken during the first step of work.

If you look at your secondary you'll see that there are shims (may be it's more correct to say spacers) free to move behind the bolt's head.

I'm speaking about this two thin shims. (sorry for the picture out of focus)
I put a very small piece of tape to clamp them togheter.
The tape goes from external to external of the shims, leaving free the hole of shims.
In that way they are free to move on the bolt but togheter and without noise.

Now the sled has 1100 km (700 miles) and this poor solution is still working.

Weren't some people using some kind of update kit from the Vector to quiet down the primaries on the RX-1's? I think it was a shim kit that went between the weights or something along that line. Wouldn't that kit work for the Nytro?
