OregonAl Posted June 7, 2008 Posted June 7, 2008 I noticed today that as I let the clutch out from a stop, there is a squeal toward the end of the clutch lever travel. If it was a car I would guess throwout bearing. Any ideas? Of course this happens practically on the eve of the National. Should it need immediate repair it is unlikely I'll get the part(s) and get them installed in time.

After putting some miles on it the squeak stopped. Sounded like the clutch splines with some clutch debris in there.

Don't know if it matters but your '04 has a different clutch than mine(single plate).
