Rattlin' Forks in Saudi
There are a number of 07 Fatboys in Saudi and we all have a problem - there is a rattle like a dime in a tin cup when you drive over a slow, small bump like a speed bump from the front forks. The dealer has stripped the forks - no problems apparent but he thinks its caused by the damper tube washer/seal. No word from the HD folk. It sure is annoying! Anyone else had the problem?

Hey guys, betting your problem is the same as the oneI did have. The dealer replaced both front fork tubes and found a mis-machined bushing in the right one. I have seen other posts on this and we arent the only ones who have this little annoying rattle. The dealer told me only way to get ridof the rattle was to replace the tubes. This is just a guess because not hearing the rattle no way to be sure.

RE: Rattlin' Forks in Saudi
Some problem with a valve not being crimped properly. I never trust what they tell me anyway. After the way they treated my wife with the oil leak, and the attitude that she should be happy that they let her buy a Harley and quit complaining about the oil leak, sticking throttle and clunk in the front forks, she doesn't have much respect for anyone connected with a Harley dealership. Sherides more in one year than most of them do in five years, and they treated her like dirt. Not much respect here for the central Arkansasarea Harley dealership.
