Knock Knock....

Errrrrrrrr.... Guys, I have a K6 which I've done 1700 miles on and it has knocked over sudden bumps since day one but there's no play in the head bearings. I put it down to the naff suspension.

Its the head bearings, just tighten them up.

Oh hold on, thats not right, that should be

"They all do that sir, dont worry about it all, yes its annoying"

Mine has 300 miles on the clock and its done it since day 1.

I'm not worried though, its usually a fairly hefty bump/hole that does it.

(It coincides with the bumps/holes that turn off the car radio, actually)

I had the same from (nearly) new, seem to remember it being "standard". I have now emulators and ther is no knock, and I have done nothing to the head bearings.

I'm guessing it's fne, but do the checks as described because it can't hurt.

Yep mine does the same.

I think it might be the forks bottoming out either way (extension or retraction...) only a guess, mine does it.

I spent a long time tracking down the knock on my curvey forks and found it was the preload spacer tube banging on the inside of the fork tubes because it's not a tight fit. I put a synthetic o ring ( oil resistant ) around the bottom of the preload tube and the knock has disappeared.
