Chatter under braking
Posted: Mon May 12, 2008 8:55 am
I have a very mild chatter through the bars under light braking, through traffic etc. Unsure of whats causing it.
Heavier braking doesn't tend to bother it.
Bike is an rvf, calipers are spotless, discs are ebc, pads are sintered, both with little mileage.
Head bearings were replaced 2000 miles ago and i can't find any problems with them.
My only unknown are the front wheel bearings.
I would doubt its my fork setup, unless something has gone wrong internally but i don't think so.
Any idea's, its not stored where i live so messing with setup isn't something i will have time to do
for a while yet.
Currently i'm thinking i'll replace the front wheel bearings anyway and check if the head bearings need
adjustment. If anyone has anything else i could check, let me know now.
