Hello everyone. I'm hoping someone can help me diagnose a strange noise from the front of my 2013 K1600GTL. It is a metallic "rattling" sound that is driving me crazy. It handles and brakes just fine, and a casual inspection has revealed no obvious damage. I've put it up on the centre stand and had a buddy spin the front wheel which turns fine with no obvious resistance. Pushing down on the handlebars when the bike is stopped SOMETIMES replicates the sound, but not always. It generally occurs while riding.
Any ideas? I'd be greatful for any suggestions. I've ridden 1,000 miles to get to the rally in Salt Lake CIty and am planning to ride twice that distance to get home, so I want to make sure the bike is safe.
(PS. I'm wondering if it could be front spring-related???)
