Clunking over bumps!
I have a 2008 wide glide. I have rebuilt the front forks, replaced the front and rear motor mounts but every time I hit a bump i'm getting a clunk. I have replaced all that stuff and i'm dumbfounded at the moment. Any ideas on what I can check or if you've had the same issues? Thanks!

You go out there to that bike and grab that tank with both hands and see if you can move it or wrench it around a bit while yelling at the top of your lungs "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!"

As others have said check those front tank bolts and tighten as needed. It's quick and easy, common and makes a bunch of noise. Had them loosen on my 14 and thought for sure a mount or something was broken somewhere.
