Marbles and sand in the 1330....
I apologize for trying to bring a little levity to a subject that has been bothering a few on this forum. That would be the noises that come from the 1330 while it is running. I did not feel that my light ribbing was out of place since this matter was brought up before. But someone else did. Therefore I shall endeavor to be more courteous & less insensitive to other peoples posts. And the answer to the tread that was removed can be found in the following locations. Thanks.

'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''Box of Rocks
No offense is meant but the 1330 sounds like a box of rocks compared to both my V-Max and Valkyrie motors ( Valk has been sold ). The noise doesn't concern me any more. Especially after our 2 week trip with some high speeds and hot weather. ( not a drop of oil either)

After owning two Valks and two Goldwings I have to agree. The total lack of noise and vibration from those Hondas sometimes lent me to believe the engines had seized.

I agree that the 1330 is noisy compared to other engines. I didn't think mine was overly noisy when I got it. After looking around on here and on the internet I found that it's just the nature of 3 cylinder engines. You would think that balancing a 3 cylinder would be easy but because of having an odd number of pistons makes it difficult. Because of that you end up with more noise than an engine with an even number of pistons. Makes me wonder why Rotax didn't try to make a 4 cylinder engine to fit in the same space.
