V2K rattle

Ryguy · 05-21-2007

Ok so I have noticed a rattle coming from the front of my 2K. It sounds like a hard plastic hitting something rattle. Is there anything under that big headlight nacelle that rattles on these baby's? It's been driving me crazy in town. It only rattles at higher rpm's. If I'm cruising in town around 25-30 in second gear, it sounds like that thing will rattle off. Any ideas?

No one will answer you Ryguy; We're all jealous of that glacier blue beast of yours!!!

Ok it's a pile of junk. I'll haul it away for 500 bucks for you.

Yeah. I'd ditch it right away and buy back the Nomad.

MauiAl · 05-21-2007

I just checked my schedule, I can haul it away today. But that requires a cash payment. Just leave the money in the ride side saddle bag and the key in the left.

Hey I love ya man but my offer is off the table in the morning. You want that POS hauled away? Then the discount for you has a 24 hour limit.

fretbuzz · 05-21-2007

Somebody had said something about putting rubber washers under the screws for the headlight coweling. I'm not sure it was for the V2K, but I remember reading it on this forum somewhere.

*jukief* · 05-21-2007

You're right. I remember someone talking about this before, but I can't for the life of me remember who it was. Carlo, maybe???? You V2K owners will have to chime in.

I also remember that. That may be the issue. I may take the nacelle apart and see what I can find

Well I'll do some thinking and let you know within the set time frame, if I don't make it how much more will you charge to haul after that??

You need loud pipes, that makes all the annoying little noises go away

I know you know I'm joking but let me tell you. I'm coveting your bike big time. After that test ride I did on saturday I'm so sold and I'm not an easy sell.

One of my harley buddies just sent me a bottle of soy sauce to pour on my "rice burner" when I get it. Funny stuff but, he won't stay with me when we go for a ride will he

Enjoy that POS, can't wait til I get mine.

Good point, wonder if the better half would be that easy of a sell

MauiAl · 05-21-2007

I love loud. I asked the dealer saturday if aftermarket pipes voided the warranty, he said no.

My buddy put aftermarkets on his harley, he had his warranty voided.

Since everyone else is being so helpful, let me pile on -and point out all the big V2k's rattle until they have Nomad hardbags
