Strange rattling noise
First of all, whats up yall? I am brand new to the site but not new to ridin.
 \\;
I have an 07 Heritage with 16000 miles and have noticed a weird little rattling sound coming from somewhere up front. It only happens when going over bumps. Most people tell me "thats just what a Harley does". I dont think so. I have only had the bike since August 07 and the noise has really started bothering me lately so I know it hasnt always been there and just not noticed. I am fairly competent with maintaining and upgrading my own ride and am at a loss to figure it out. I cant recreate the problem with it in the garage.
 \\;
There has been no problem with the bike at all and its not affecting anything as far as I can tell regarding performance. So if any of yall have had similar issues please let me know what you did to fix it.

RE: Strange rattling noise
I took \\;my 07 FXST in about 4 weeks ago complaining of the same thing a definate clunk noise over bumbs and stuff. they said they couldn't find anything wrong or couldn't recreate the noise, so i road the bike home. 2 days later i had grease all over the front end to include the tank, front cylinder and all hoses, wires, it was everywere, needless to say i took it back, this time i had a slight additude and next thing i knew my bike was down for 10 days waiting for parts... but now that i have it back the clunk is defenately gone, my bike is spotless and am happy once more...
