Rattle when change gears

Hi,

F650GS , 2001 70000KM.

When I change from nutral to 1sr gear I heard a rattle.

Sometimes I heard this rattle when I change to other gear.

What can be the reason for this rattle ?

Regards
Kobi
 
The clunk is normal but only if changing gears. Change your oil and see if you have metal filing on the sump plug. Although 70k km's is high it is not too high so if it has been looked after the engine should be in a good condition.
 
It's a speciality of BMW gearboxes.

"They all do that sir".

The clunk is always at 1st gear and sometimes between other gear.
Nothing to do with that ? :(

Thanks

Yep, I confirm that ! :rob
Unfortunately, it seems to be a "standard" option.

The clunking :)augie) is far worse in 1st gear, then it improves :eek: as you work your way up.
At least that's what it does for my '03 F650GS.

I have found that doing a smooth shift between gears in the torque range with the clutch properly setup makes the sound smoother too
 
Have a look at faq.f650.com it has all the info you and your family can eat
