Oh, great you found it. Yes, one indeed gets nervous till one finds the source. I really hope it was that finger loose, rear compression release. Currently bike is standing outside in the street without front tire. Hopefully I will receive the new tube on Monday. Then I will fix the tire, go for ride and see how it runs.

Still rattling at load. But hardly any knockcounts on the PV. May put microphones on it: 1/ Front Cylinder 2/ Rear Cylinder 3/ Front Primary 4/ Rear Primary

But before that I must fix the inner primary bearing again. (Sound is back after 15000 miles.)

Trying to figure out why some say Bakers won’t fit Dyna 2006 and if there is any Baker bearing which will fit. It will be my next thread here, I guess.
