I have a clicking sound coming from the front end of my Fury when i bounce hard on the bars.The bars,stem and headset are are tight and dont move,the fork (Tora 318 U-Turn) seems to be nice and smooth throughout its travel.
What else on the front end could be causing this clicking sound ?

Cheers

Mike

    the valves in the rebound circuit moving?

    Im not sure its coming from the fork at all but I cant quite trace it,maybe I will get a mate to bounce the fork while I try and track it down :?

    could be pads moving..... there are many many things. work it through and eliminate the obvious. headset/play in fork/wheel bearings...

    Its a case of taking everything off and cleaning the interfaces between parts, regreasing headset. Could also be a problem somewhere else, so the noise in being amplifed through the frame.
