Re: front fork knocking sound
Have you checked that everything is tight?
Maybe a caliper even? Check that all four bolts are holding the calipers on.

Re: front fork knocking sound
My srad gsxr just to do this... Turned out to be a cracked front mud guard. Look for loose fitting plastics or components as Binky points out
