Well I thought I had the rattles cured on my new Voyager Kit but I guess not. Me and the little woman went out for a little ride today and the rattles are back. Is this something you have to learn to live with or is there some sort of cure.
Originally the tires had to much air and I reduced it to 20 lbs per tire. I set the air pressure on the bike to around 50 lbs on the rear tire. The bike is a 1989 gl 1500. I also run the bike tires at 41 rear and 40 front. The sound is like having a tool box half full of tools shaking around in the trunk every time you run over some sort of bump. Like maybe something is lose or not tight enough.
The only other problem or characteristic of the kit that I don't like is it seems to lean a little to much. Kind of like riding on a slow moving train when you get the side ways motion as the track changes level. Would a higher preload change this any? If anyone can offer any help it would be greatly appreciated.
