kym500....Welcome to ATV Frontier!
Hey...is that 500 of your a 2007 or 2008?
Did you make sure the recall on the swingarm was performed?
There are noises tha mine makes when coming down really rough hills and maybe decellerating. or breaking..it mostly is the rear drive train and the CVT kind of chattering but they say that is not uncommon.
Is it only when you hit a bump or is it similiar to what I described?
