clunky clunky

I have this audable clunk coming from my rear wheel, u can hear it every revolution or there abouts, i cant entirely pin point it but sounds like lhs rear wheel...

i can feel it through the lhs foot peg aswell when coasting with the clutch in .. cant feel it under engine braking or acceleration..

any one got a remedy ?

EDIT: ok no tight spots in the chain.. and its doing it once per revolution...

Cactus sprocket?

Wheel bearing?

Loose sprocket Nut/bolt?

Sounds spooky whatever it is -

Hows the back cog look? Got a centre stand? You could put it up on it and let the bike idle in first, then get down and have a good look/listen around it. I wouldn't ride it while it sounded like that myself.

i have a rear stand thats what ive had it on checking it out, rear sprocket looks fine to me ... cant see a problem with it but ill go inspect it !

checked out the sprocket and it looks fine .. checked most the links around where it clunks and couldnt find a stiff one ...

might just ride it til it fixes itself haha j/k

sound like wheel bearing, have you lubed rear wheel assembly, sometimes dirt or bearing failure can cause that clicking sound.

It happened to a steering head bearing on my dirt bike once, and it made that clicking noise when I turned the bars from left to right.

I replaced the bearing and it was fine, it was very dirty, lube would proly fix it though on such a new bike though.

hmmm doesnt appear to be doing it anymore... took it for a spin today, no noise and i couldnt feel it through the peg either, if it comes back ill investigate it further but for now im gonna enjoy riding the thing

I had a similar thing happen on a car once, turned out to be a piece of chewing gum on the tyre! Took me ages to find it too......
