[QUOTE="jpcfjr, post: 944541, member: 18946"] Tru dat. The good news is I got the installation all done last night. The preload spacer ended up being cut to 104mm or about 4.1". The bad news is the noise is still in the front end. The only things left as potential candidates are the head bearing or the wheel/hub assembly...or possibly I assembled the fork bushings incorrectly? I replaced the head bearing with All Balls Racing tapered roller bearings when I originally did the forks and the wheel bearings were replaced two weeks ago when I first discovered the sound because I wanted to rule that out. I'm done, finished, kaput. Defeat officially declared. Bike is going to the shop and now it's just gonna be about money. Heavy sigh. [/QUOTE]
