New problem

I swear my fiddy hates me alot. Now there is a new problem that I have no clue about. Ok so now when I ride I sometimes here a clicking sound that I can slightly feel. It happens ALOT when I pull up the front for wheelies and it's messing them up because I start going up and it pops and like jerks me back even more making me almost fall everytime I go up high. It sounds like it is coming from the back and has to do with someting with the chain but I checked it out and can't see anything. Does anyone know what it could be. Thanks for everyone whos been helping me out with all my problems. I appreciate it guys!!!

Is your chain tight?

You could have frozen links in your chain. That will cause what you are describing.

mine did the same thing....wat is happening is that the front sprocket on the xrs are so small that the tend to skip.... to solve this u need to make your chain realy tite....not rock hard but tighter then normal. or u may have frozen links like ENASNI900RR said.

losen the axle bolts then use the adjusters to move the tire back to tighten the chain

sounds to me like your leg is hitting the kick starter back while riding that can be the ticking noise. check and see if its the same kinda noise by moving the kick startter slightly when running, be careful cause its not good to do
