[QUOTE="CA G-Man, post: 1157770, member: 36805"] Funny this topic should come up. I recently rode a short distance without ear plugs (I almost always wear them) and noticed what I think is the noise you’re describing when going over some bumpy surfaces. I was worried that when doing some recent farkling I hadn’t quite gotten the fairings back on securely or something, but I will check the brake rotor thing to see if the sound is the same. On the other hand, my original right-hand headlight adjustment knob still hasn’t turned up after disappearing several months ago, so who knows? I honestly couldn't say for sure whether this is a new sound or something that I've never noticed before because of my ear protection (I thought I had ridden short distances once or twice before without ear plugs but I could be wrong...). As somebody posted here recently, you hear all kinds of unsettling noises when not wearing ear plugs. That is, I suppose, until the effects of not wearing ear plugs kick in and you end up not hearing anything at all. [/QUOTE]
