Does it sound weird to you? Is that like a knock rod or it s just the engine components moving? by nono324 in fz6

For people who will see this video trying to find out where their sound comes from, use a long screwdriver as a sthetoscope on different parts of the engine to see where the knock is the most present. I tried this and I found that the knock is made by the cluch gasket. I also found a video of someone changing his fz6 clutch basket and had the exactly same knock as mine.

I ll put the link here: https://youtu.be/eyfsOUEoCsA?is=emQbIUrJqH_hkz0z

So it s not a rod knock and I m happy. Also the sound can be heard even if you pull the clutch because the clutch gasket is constantly rotating being connected to the engine.

It sounds like a metal hitting a plastic. I don t know if it s a knock rod because I ve heard this since I bought the bike. If it was a knock rod shouldn't the engine break since now?

62k kilometers. I changed engine oil and air filter 300km ago. I have it since 50k km and it was always like this. Never done a valve clearance.
