I have the Works spring kit in my forks, and it still chatters a bit. It doesn't really bother me though, I've made sure everything is tight so I don't know what's causing it.

I get chatter too and it's really starting to get on my nerves. The only thing that lessens it is to brake hard when stopping, but which seems a bike excessive...
Is this strictly a Dyna phenomenon?
