Clanking Noise From Front

Jim Gross · 2024-08-07T15:13:38Z

I have a 2018 R1200GS with LBS leading link front end and Hannigan sidecar. This is my first and only rig I have ridden. Lately I hear a clanking noise coming from the front. Calipers, rotor, shocks, and fender mounts all seem to be tight. Is there something inside the LBS unit that could be loose that would would cause this?

Yikes! May the procedure go smoothly and without additional excitement. FWIW - USE THE PILLOW! Don't use your arms to lift yourself from your comfy chair because that will continue to rip your sternum away from the ribs as it tries to reattach. My FIL was doing that and it set his recovery back a lot.
