I'm looking for some advice.My 1996 XL1200c is making a scraping/grating sort of noise.At first I thought is was the belt but when we lifted the back wheel off the deck and spun the wheel it sounded like something was trapped under the front pulley cover.I removed the cover and found nothing so I readjusted the wheel alignment and the belt tension.I put it all back together and took it for a run and the noise is still there.Could it be bearing breaking up behind the pulley? The noise is worse when slowing down.Any advice is welcome.
