Got the heatshield rattle and the forks do chatter at very low speed which I'm told here is down to the fork oil which I will get changed . Still working on the heat shield which is no easy fix but got to say doesn't bother me too much.

mine had a horrible rattle until I discovered it was the tools in my fork bag. a couple of minutes with some tape and the rattle was solved.

Cool, when I traded up from my V-Star I was warned.... \\; more rattles, shakes and maybe some more wrench turning. Everyone was right, but I love the shakes, don't mind messing with things when they rattle, and the ownership has been incredible. Also, truly the best bike I have ever been on. I can ride for hours and not even start to get uncomfortable, you won't be disappointed!
