Odd sound..I think.

katmol
I starting to put a few miles on my '78 CB and I'm hearing a noise I not sure what it is. It a '78 CB750K with 9500 miles on it. It' got all the travel garb on it from the 70's "Vetter fairing and Bates bags, luggage rack" which I was going to take off but haven't yet. When riding at 40, 50, 60MPH I hear a low freq. sound. Kind of a "wosh, wosh, wosh" that stops when I pull in the clutch and cost. It sound like a tight spot in the chain but that shouldn't stop when I pull in on the clutch.  Any ideas???

I bet it is a part of your "touring garb" vibrating and resonating. I was a Honda mechanic during those add on touring days an the type of noise was quite common.
