During my last several rides I have experienced a light clicking almost racheting like sound coming from the right rear. It only does it when turning right a low to moderate speeds; maybe I can't hear it at higher speeds. I almost believe it is wheel RPM related at 1 to 1.

I have raised the Rincon up on a lift and run it and can not duplicate the sound.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Greg

parkgt, I found this thread from a while back. My rincon makes the same noise as described there when breaking hard into a corner.

Is this close to what yours is doing?

Guitars911,

I do not think that is it; mine has nothing to do with braking that I remember I will check for a braking connection on my next ride.

Thanks,

Greg

sound alot like a cv joint,you hear it alot on front wheel drive cars when turning...is everything tight,no movement in the control arms?no trash or anything between the hub and wheel?just ideas...

Twice I have had a rock wind up getting stuck on the rear of the frame and rubbing on the brake rotor. Both times they were between golf ball & tennis ball sized. Each time they made a sound similar to what you describe. Take a look, maybe thats all it is.

Thanks for input I will check out the rock idea. I have taken the whole assembly apart and regreased the CV joints without changing the sound. Every thing looked as I thought it should.
