Not to be a wise a$$, but where are your freedom bells at?

On a good turn, I have had mine drag and make that same sound...
Just a thought

I have no idea what it is, but the wife and I were out riding last night, and I swear I could hear something similar... (05 FLHRSI)

I thought is was one of the zippers on my jacket, but after checking them all its not.. Then I did not hear it once on the ride home.. Odd.

On my next ride with her I am going to take off the windshield and see if it makes that noise again.

Hi Gordo

I never thought to check that lol. My ride bell is attached to the frame and just under and behind my right floor board. The first time i heard it was when i was in NC doing the Dragon RT 129. Many time the flool boards would scrape along with that kinking sound. Going to tape up the ride bell and see if i still get the same sound. I think i will have to take it back to the dragon again just to make sure lol , Hey its an excuse to get back to NC lol .

Thanks Tony
