Well, picked up my new to me 1098 yesterday On the service report it states that the basket is badly worn. Riding the bike it felt alright to me. What are the signs of it and any consequences if not changed other than noise ? Thanks
Noise, potential difficulty finding neutral, grabby when moving off. Otherwise...if it ain't broke...
Noise is the main symptom. A loud chattering. Do the quiet mod though and the noise goes away and wear is pretty much halted too.
Its a pretty easy part to replay on your own (if you are at all handy). Not a big ticket part either. Wait until you're in the worst possible place and have it go or just fix it and be done with it.
