Whats going onn
16 posts and you havent even told us if we are getting warm.
Could be the front guard banging on the road because it was about to fall off but I cant see ddgonzal letting his pride and joy get in such a state of disrepair.
More info please


I don't think he'll wait untill we get it.Because we never will.

I'll go with idler Arm. When the bushes go completely, the sound can be most disconcerting.

Bingo!

All good guesses.

But yes, it was the Idler Arm bushings. The most odd thing to me is that I did not feel the problem through the steering wheel!

The bushings were good in the usual direction, but the top and bottom part were broken out, I guess when it went up/down it made a double rap (metal on metal).

Anyways, it was only $9 USD for new bushings and very easy to replace: http://www.partsamerica.com

Don't forget about the loose nut behind the wheel.

Open in new window

Idler Arm Bushings

The bit marked by yellow is what wore out on my 1200. Thereby causing the infamous double-knock sound when going over bumps.
