Sidewinder rattle

[Rukus]

New to me 2017 Sidewinder. Previous owner installed new primary around 2000km ago. I know this topic has been beat to death but today did around 100km, was pretty warm out so I had my visor up for most of the ride. The thing rattles like crazy from idle to about trail cruising speed. When I really crack on it I can't hear it probably due to exhaust sound.

Some threads I've read say if it's the primary it should stop rattling with RPM. Does that point to something else making the noise or has anyone else noticed the rattle at trail cruising speed? I've owned 2 nytros, a phazer and a viper and none were this loud.

Thanks!

The easiest option is the powerblock clutch from Umatek. However, they are currently sold out.

As long as I know it's the primary and it's normal I'm happy.

Just want to verify the is normal off idle as well, at higher rpm as well?

At idle and also part throttle up to about 5500 then it goes away past that.

Hurricane noise reduction ring works wonders.

I have had the original design Hurricane noise reduction shaft for many years and clutch is still quiet with very little roller wear.
