Hi guys
This is doing my head in,seriously!!. Here's a bit of history.Forks serviced at Ohlins 24 months ago. Guy said they were due for a service and that there was wear in the metal slides. Fairly positive that i started hearing front end road noise(rumble) i call it. This noise changes with the different road surfaces. I cannot hear it on a real smooth surface but if the road changes to something a bit courser i hear the rumbling
.Decided to do the whole service thing again because of the noise and ordered everything needed to do the complete job so all the slides replaced,seals etc and also replaced the springs with Ohlins replacements.
Guess what....same issue. So thought it must be the wheel bearings and did them with no change. Next on the list was the steering head bearings. All done and still no bloody change. Yesterday changed the front tire suspecting that possibly and its still the same. Have also checked the front disks out and no issues there. Front brakes are fine. As said previous this is driving me crazy so any thoughts would be appreciated. I've seriously had a guts full of this and may look at replacing with a 2014 if i can't sort it. Argh!!!!!
