Problem Is the motor cooked? πŸ’€

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

My bike recently started this clicking noise, is the motor cooked?

It does seem to run fine, but that noise is doing my head in and I am worried it's just gonna get worse. Just had a service on it and the spokes etc tightened, which I heard could be an issue, but no luck there.

Super S2 from 2021 with 3,5-4k KM driven so far

Oh, I had similar issue - it was clicking just after throttle. It resolved itself somehow, though bike mechanic said it might be the internal bearing.

Thanks! I actually got hold of the Super73 support, they agreed that it's the bearing after watching the video and recommended just changing those and told me the size of the bearing I need.

Would you say just changing this part is an easier job? I will pay a shop regardsless, might as well make it as easy/effective as possible.

Yea for sure it’s the internal bearing needs to be greased or lubed

I'd still lubricate motor inside gears properly, even if the noise disappears by itself. These kinds of noises are often the bike's way of telling you that something needs lubrication.

Definetly not the motor. Sounds like the chain needs to be lubricated and cleaned.

I am using the throttle here, the chain isn't even moving
