Rattling Heritage 2019
I am sure someone already figured this out just not sure whats the fix. My saddlebags on Heritage rattle where lower arm goes into grove in the frame mount on the bottom. Thing drives me nuts. Whats the fix?
I also have some rattling sound up front at around 3000rpms. I already fixed both gas caps and tight all the bezels rings on front lamps so what is next to check?
Come on HD WTH?

I had both of those problems. The rattling bag brace I wrapped a black plastic coated twist tie around the mount next to the arm. Up front I found it was the fog lamp inner mounting ring, couple pieces of electrical tape around that. Problems solved.

Maybe another consideration is over time the grommet deteriorates and may need to be replaced.

I snap a rubber band around the mount after installing the bag to fill the gap and prevent rattles.
