Hi everyone, my buddy has a 2006 dyna low rider and all of a sudden when he rides he can feel every little bump in the front end? any idea what it might be? No signs of fork oil leaking out. Maybe a fork spring broke?........thanks for the help.

 

I have the same issue with my 06 street bobh. Interested in peoples thoughts here. My feels really bad and bangs pretty hard sometimes!!

 

Steve; see your other post.

Elwrong; you might want to elaborate a little more about your buddies problem in order to make a better prognoses on said condition. (everything goes bump in the night)

 

Start with a steering head adjustment. He might be getting clunking as a result of that, or simply the nut needs to be torqued back down. Those are just a couple cheap things to look into to start you off....

 

Oil went to **** perhaps. I always put synthetic ATF in my glide front forks because I like the feel of a firmer suspension.

 

Say'z the man with a springer

 

It ain't the only bike I've ever had.

 

LOL

 

i would replace the oil in there, but first check the steerinig stem bearing to make sure it is tight... if it is a rappid bounce it my be the tire is out of ballance/not seated propperly... very little info to go on here bud so try everything

 

I will take a look at the few things here mentioned. I may even haul off the front tire and see it re-balanced. The previous owner had the wheels powder-coated so they may not have been balanced, who knows!
