Hello there, just wondering if anyone could shed some light on a noise I can hear on my 1984 v80. When I release the throttle I can hear a slight metal rattle which sounds like it's coming from the front wheel area. I've checked around the exterior wheel and nothing seems loose. I can also hear it a bit after I release the break sometimes. 

Could it therefore be something like bearings? I had my shoes changed around 3 weeks ago. The breaks are good - just wondering if something may have loosened while we opened up the housing? 

 

Cheers 

Emma. 

 

 

hope there isn't a bit of a broken spring in there!, can you put the bike on a centre stand and get the wheel off the ground and spin it by hand, you might have to put some weight on the back of the seat to lift the front...guessing

I'll give that a go later, thanks! 

I was thinking spring - I just hoped I wouldn't have to take the thing apart again... Hey ho.
