Well,I have been to the dealer twice who tells me that trident 900's get loud as they get older. I dont believe it! I have a knocking like pre ignition on one cylinder only under load at 3500-5k rpm. If it is not under load, no noise!! the bike runs great, no smoke, normal power, oil is clean, no metal!!! it is not the alternator cush drive or the clutch basket, the chain tensioner is ok, does not happen at idle or any other time other than under load 3500-5k rpm....... The bike has 26,000 miles on it and the noise has been there since about 21,000. Any ideas??? no it is not the cush drive or clutch basket that everyone has recomended in the past..... IDEAS??
