Yer mine was bad too ,, i made mine better by adding double sided tape or thin draught excluder between all the joints ???? Good Luck .,........
May 17, 200915 yr Author Is it a continous rattle or does it just happen around 4500 rpm? just at about 3500-4500 rpm,i have been told it is a common problem by the guys at the shop where she was serviced etc but it is an annoying problem.
May 19, 200915 yr Sorry about delay answering, yes, it is a common problem I get it with mine at around 4500rpm and i'm sure it's to do with exhaust system because just before I had to replace them it almost dissapeared but as soon as I put new ones on it came back again. The annoying thing is on my bike 4500rpm is at 60mph so I tend to go at 62mph and it's completely gone. Mike
May 19, 200915 yr hawk.... perhaps this stuff would help? http://www.fatmat.com/kits/rattletrap/sheets.html i figure if it can keep body panels and license plates from rattling at 200 db, maybe some placed on the inside of your fairings would help..
