Not to worry it is just your fuel pump clicking away just like it is suppose
to.

Subject: Thunk or Clunk Diagnostic
> Looking for thoughts on a potential problem on my essentially stock '00
Max,
> on which I have put on a little over 5000 miles since May.

> I was sitting at a long light in neutral (the gear, not the town). Was
> relaxing and letting my hands dangle down, kind of touching the rear base
of
> the fake tank & frame near the seat. I felt a thunk or mild clunk that
> randomly repeated itself at intervals of between 3 - 5 seconds. There was
> no audible indication to accompany the thunk I felt through the frame. I
> do not feel anything through the bars, pegs, or seat.
>
> Still needed to get home, so I proceeded and checked it again at the next
> light. There was nothing at all !? Checked again at the next light (ya,
> too darn many lights) and it was back again. I just took it on home at
that
> point.

> Did a drain & strain of the oil and did not find any metal pieces. Cut up
> filter revealed no clues. OK, new oil, new filter, new day. Had no
> indicators of the thunk when cold, warm, or at normal operating
temperature
> initially. About 50 miles into the oil change, the same thunking came
back,
> same random pattern.
>
> Could this be the loose bolts on the starter clutch? It's very random
when

> this.
