rattle over 65mph 2 Years, 11 Months ago
|
|

Hi guys, I know i have seen this thread before but i cannot find it. Riding today i discovered a sound or metallic rattle (maybe becouse i was not wearing a helmet) up around the light/passing lamps when i got up to 65 mph or higher. I stopped and went over the complete front end looking for something that was loose, windshield, light, passing lamps, everything and i could not find anything. When i got home i checked everything again and still everything seems to be tight to the bike and so on. I thought there was a thread saying it is the headlight cover. If anybody could tell me where the post is or if they had a similar problem and how they corrected it i would greatly appreciate it. thanks be safe kroyleahcim

Next time you hear it, reach out and touch the headlight bucket. If the noise stops ... bingo.

I'm surprised that you could hear the rattle with your wife on the back .. I could not have.

I had a rattle inside my headlight housing. I padded the connectors and no more rattle. Two minute job.
