bucket of bolts sound

some of the time my&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; 06 ultra&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; motor sounds like a bucket of bolts when I stop at a light or&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;when I give it more throttle on the highway.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I have 15,000 miles on her and this only started a 1000 miles or so ago.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
thanks rick

You might want to check the compensator nut...I've read many a post stating that these have backed out causing this problem...

RE: bucket of bolts sound

My warranty is up in two days so I decided to drop it off at the dealers this morning&nbsp\\;and see what they come up with.&nbsp\\; At least I will have documented the problem .
&nbsp\\;
I will let you know what they come up with if anything
&nbsp\\;
Thanks for the replies
