Hi,
Just curious if anyone else has had / is having the same issue with regards to a hollow rattle when riding over rough terrain, etc. emitting from the front of the bike.
When riding on uneven terrain (tar included - rumble strips / rough tar) I tend to get a hollow rattle which sounds like it's coming from the mud guard ...
Sound is even worse when doing a bit of trail riding.
At first I thought it was the plate behind the radiator that was vibrating - wasn't that
Then thought it could be the plastic mesh in front of the radiator - wasn't that either
Now I have no idea ???
Bike only got 2500km on the clock - and has had this rattle from day 1 ... asked BMW to look at it ... and they never found anything loose they tell me :-\
Anyone had the same issue?
