Fellow Buellers,

I have a '07 XB12Ss with about 6K miles and sometimes I hear a clicking/clacking noise coming from the lower part of the bike. It's not related to braking, usually occurs at slower speeds (1st or 2nd gear), mainly on deceleration approaching a stop. I checked the drive-belt and seat fasteners. It's a complete mystery to me. Bike runs and starts fine. Anyone else experiencing similar clicking noises?

+1 primary chain. I'm about to adjust mine too.

+2 on the primary. It's a real easy adjustment.
