I was about 20 minutes into a nice ride yesterday and heard a strange noise from the front engine or tire area. The only way to describe it was as if the bike had run over a flattened pop can in the road. Short rasp and it was gone not to appear the rest of the day. No big thing.
Today I am riding and the same noise appeared. Short rasp and it did not come back. Bike ran fine.
There was nothing in the road that I saw and I watch carefully for rough surfaces when riding.
Anybody ever experience somthing like this? I have an 03 RSTD with about 15K on it.
