Fork Clatter

[NortonCharlie]

I have also heard that the springs clatter internally on the fork tubes when they compress.  My RS does a little of that.

In that case I'll be looking at how I can stop it when I change the fork oil.  If something's loose enough to clonk,  it should be possible to bush or shim it out somehow without affecting the action.  I'll have to tidy up the garage so that I can get to my lathe..... :roll:

That'll be a bit like stopping your heart from beating. It's the valve closing that makes the clonk.

In that case what I'm hearing sounds more like the springs than a valve closing.  We'll see when I get them apart.
