850 khaos chatter/rattling at idle

Annacassandra · Feb 23, 2020

I just picked up a brand new 850 khaos yesterday and there’s a chatter/rattle when it’s idling. It sort of sounds like it’s coming from the front clutch. It’s kind of intermittent- it’s there most of the time but sometimes goes away. Any ideas what it could be? I’m going to take it back to the dealer tomorrow but I wanted to take it for a rip today and that noise is concerning...

Crisis averted.. found the issue. I had them add electric start and it seems while they were putting everything back together they left a screwdriver in there...

Now you got yourself a free screwdriver, hopefully it didn't damage anything

Is it at least a Snap On?

Nope it’s a cheap Canadian tire Phillips head that they slotted with a grinder to use for exhaust springs after it was too chewed up to be useful as a screwdriver anymore... lol

So you didn't even score something good out of it.
I once got a nice Ingersoll Rand 3/8" air ratchet someone left under the hood of my old Kenworth that was in the shop.
