tuk tuk sound from final drive

[Zen2osho]

I observe a tuk tuk sound from the final shaft drive while reversing the bike manually in neutral. The same sound appears in first gear when i clutch in and also second gear. What could be the reason ?, i changed the tyres 600 miles before and the same started just 20 miles before and is very noticeable.
I did circles with the bike and the sound is plenty!!

I can't even imagine what a tuk tuk sound would sound like

Forgive my language!! Its a semi metallic sound !! First i thought it was my number plate !! But the thing is from d final drive shaft, rode the bike in front of few bikers ! All of them noticed the sound, i wil jack the rear tyre rotate it manually and check if the sound persists. But jus worried if that thing happens only in gear with the clutch pulled in!!

I met an Eskimo that made that sound one time.

hi there is this sound happening more often than a stone or two caught in the tread of your back tyre would make?

Like was said before, it could be a stone caught somewhere. Sounds on a motorcycle are funny, the may seem to come from somewhere a distance away from the issue. I would check all moving parts and parts where things move inside others for a stone, even inside the brake caliper.

When was the last time you greased the splines/final drive?

Something like this?

I very very occasionally get this metallic clunk sound - In 1st gear with clutch pulled in at very low speed. Especially when the engine is already HOT - i.e. fan on.
Sounds like the noise that comes from the transfer box on my Land Rover. Just keep an eye on it - unless it gets worse - ignore it.

Dismantled the wheel , greased the shaft & changed the final drive oil. To isolate the sound! removed the wheel and put in gear 1 and rotate the final drive ! no sound !

finally found that the problem ( sound ) is from the bearing @ brake rotor side!

ordered all the three bearings and spacers!!

How will these bearings damage in 5500 miles!!
