The sound is similar to what you hear when you push the kick down while the engine is running.

Hello all,
I own a 2021 BS6 FI TVS Ntorq which has done around 10000 km until now. According to me, it’s a spectacular machine & I am absolutely in love with it. Though the ownership experience has been flawless up until now, there is an issue that has cropped up for a few days.
Now, every time the engine has warmed up & I apply the rear brake to decelerate I have observed that there is a ‘kirr-‘kirr’ sound that comes from near where the kick is placed. This only happens when the bike is either on a speed-breaker or is tilted slightly towards either side while I brake. The sound is very similar to the one that comes when the kick is pushed down while the engine is running.
I have taken it to both TVS ASC as well as FNG but neither seem to be able to resolve the issue though they acknowledge the sound is there.
I request the esteemed members to please give your suggestions as to what might be the problem is as I would hate any serious damage happening to my beloved Ntorq.
Also, if any members have a good experience with any other dealership other than Rishaan TVS on Wagholi road, Pune or can suggest a good FNG in or near Viman Nagar, Pune.
Thanks in advance.
Here’s what BHPian AJ739 had to say about the matter:
This has been a peculiar problem on all Ntorqs, even mine did it too very frequently. Every time I reported this at the ASC, they used to clean the clutch shoe and rollers and this fix used to take away the noise for a while and then would re-appear again. At almost every 900-1200kms I had to take it to them to get this done.
Then one day on the service advisor’s insistence I got the complete clutch set replaced. But then that too didn’t fix the issue permanently. Having been sick and tired of this issue and also suffering an engine seizure, I parted ways with my Ntorq Race Edition.
Please suggest your service advisor to clean the clutch shoe and rollers, which should solve the issue albeit temporarily.
