What Ck said.... do you mean driveline backlash? Like when driving you get a clunking noise (on or off the gas) or when you move rear components by hand?

no noise

[CK1999_400ex 12]

a little play is normal ... but if you have alot you might have a bearing in it thats got some ware thats causing it ... i would make shure it is lubricated well in the rear and ride it for a while then check to see if its getting worse ... if it is then i would look for the bad bearing

[GEARHEAD01 10]

all you are feeling is the gear backlash which is more noticable when the tires are on than off.

^^^^^ kinda what I was thinking. if it isnt excessive then I wouldnt worry too much plus there isnt any noise. hard to diagnose from behind a computer

[bubby 10]

one guy said on here 700$ but what i was asking one guy said it had cv joints u say bearing ive worked on alot of four wheelers but never would fool with a automatic for this reason i alwys had a clutch to tell u the truth im a honda yamaha man ive started rina clutch when i was 8 years old my first was a honda 50 dirtbikethis is the first automatic iv e ever owned

[marioweldinginc 10]

If its a shaft drive maybe its the driveshaft.

Or like you said cv joints. Could be worn out splines.

You have to have your bud either take it apart and inspect at this point or just ride
