Tapping noise
Hello there,
My curvy has a strange tapping, it sounds to be coming from the front head, and only does it when warm, its loud enough that it can be heard from a yard or 2 away. Any ideas? Chris |

Re: Tapping noise
suspected this, but have had them both out and they dont look obviously damaged.
Also why would this noise not be evident when cold?* *(Edit: unless its just got louder on this last ride, will listen again when its cooled down) |

Buy a Ducati and your worries will simply melt away.
