Title: Front Shocks
Post by: mitch on May 12, 2014, 01:15:06 PM
Hi.

Since I bought my DT300i new at the beginning of the year I am constantly aware of a clunking noise coming from the forks on rough roads and bumps - It is very annoying and I am wondering if anyone else has this problem and if so what might be the problem / fix.

It would seem that upon rebound the forks are hitting their internal stops - It is not the calliper knocking.

Mine does that too. Several others have complained about the "clunking" and we are all baffled at its source. I think we all gave up short of disassembling nearly everything to find it. We also seem to be able to ignore it while waiting for something to break so we can finally fix it. I am almost to 9000 miles and it has not changed.

Could just be the shocks bottoming out with the bumps.
