My r1150gs bmw is making a knocking noiseknocking noise

I've always gotten the same type of noise you describe after I take off in first gear after starting the bike. This is my ABS brake system setting up and is totally normal.

hi,my GS1150 has 180000k's on clock and is in daily use and probably has never missed a beat. I believe i am looking at another 100,000 by the sound of my engine

it may be the clutch basket has groves making the plates tap back and forth in basket itself and ebay will have it buy it new

look at your clutch fluid - if its dirty you may have the the slave cylinder bearing giving up as this runs at engine revs in the fluid! An obscure fault but one that boiled my fluid a few times in Europe before it became a dealer job to rectify. Most dealers in this country wont have seen the fault as low temp low milage trips dont normaly cause a problem.
