Something feels loose

The last couple days something substantial has felt loose under me when I hit a little bump or dip in the road. I've crawled around the bike a few times looking for something that didn't seem tight with no luck. To me, it feels like its getting a little worse and I'm worried its going to be an issue if not resolved soon. My bike is a 2014 Super Glide. Anyone have any thoughts on what this might be?

Call the dealership & have them come pick your bike up. Tell them you don't feel safe riding it.

I think I will do that tomorrow. Didn't really enjoy my ride home this evening for stressing it. Feels like if I put my weight on my foot pegs and off my *** when I see a bump in the road, it almost eliminates it.

Either that or it's your *** that's loose .....

Is it a solid clunk when you feel it or does rattle? Probably best to get it up onto a jack so you can easily shake and wobble bits. Could be anything from a loose exhaust bracket to your shocks bottoming out.

Good luck!
