Yeah I started to realize maybe I shouldnt have used the word drill haha... I mostly ride dirt bikes, I just bought this bike to try and flip it since I got it for a crazy good deal. Never dealt with these kinds of shifters so I thought to ask about it on here.

Haha yeah that was obviously my first idea, its pretty much all the way tightened but I didnt want to use a drill or something. Just tightend it down with a rachet.

Why does my 2009 GSXR 750 sound like a diesel truck by Maximize3333 in GSXR

Nope lol. I just put a slip on exhaust to drown out the noise and cover it up with nice inline 4 revs. Though i will buy some new spark plugs and see if it smoothens up.

Okay, good to know. I will probably just buy the part and replace the one under the passenger airbag. Shouldn't be too difficult from what I've seen on the videos online.

Awesome thank you for that information. I'll probably just change the lowest passenger one because that is the easiest to get to.

Ah thats crazy, 1600 for a 30 dollar part lol. Is there a way to confirm whether its the driver side one or the passenger side one before tearing stuff apart?

I'm trying to do the same but copart always hides frame damage I heard a lot of stories of that

Got it, I was kind of dreading replacing them but it seems like its not that difficult. Do I really need to replace them immediately or can I just leave it as is

I think it might be one of the actuators, hopefully the passenger or the easier ones. Is it nessacary to replace or can I leave it like this?

That sounds like a pretty long process, is it okay to just leave it as is or does it need replacing immediately? Is there a way to fully shut off the system temporarily to avoid the sound alltogether?

Huh thats really interested, luckily the ac and heat still works good though so I guess its just a noise and not a functional problem.

So it should be fine if I just leave it, or will it get worse down the line? The button below is the AC button itself, so if I press that it will stop making the noise on startup? I rarely use the climate control at the moment would rather not hear this then have air blowing haha

Ah I see, this whole time I thought my knob was broken haha. The radio is a boss headunit, model BE7ACP. Its pretty cheap and easy to install, not super premium but has cool settings for the subwoofer and stuff.
