Gentlefolk,
perhaps some collective thought may solve this strange noise.
My little beastie, has provided sterling service... and doesn't fail.. well nothing out of the ordinary...
Patch him up here and there... and he keeps going... (it’s a he, not a she... don't know why... just is...)
Anyway, going downhill on flat sections... I get this very occasional creaking and clunking...
Doesn’t happen uphill... Doesn't happen when the bumps get substantial...
Checked underneath, and nothing loose... No forgotten tools rattling about...
Front bearings are recently tightened up, all brakes are good (more on that in another post soon).
If there are loads of corrugations... no noise... nice and smooth, creaking and clunking... really wierd... the clunks I can feel through the peddles...
I am leaning towards all the anti-roll bars need greasing, only bits I haven’t greased, and I do like finding puddles to dunk in... it would creak, but it wouldn’t clunk... any other ideas?
Maybe even the steering... but its when going along nice a smooth straight... and at any speed... strange...
