Hello guys,
A couple of years ago I've bought a 2008 FZ6 N with around 27.000 km / 16872 miles and now I've got around 33 k km. Pretty soon after I bought the bike I stared hearing strange sounds coming from the front end. I've asked a couple of guys from a local garage to take a look at it, they tested the bike on the road and seamed fine. In time I've got "used" with the strange sound and ignored it. It;s not something constant, it only manifests i hard braking. Something like a knocking sound is coming from the left side of the front end. ( I'm not really sure if the sound is made when the suspension is compressed or released. ) I tried to reproduce the sound at a stand still by pressing like a mad man on the handle bars ) but everything worked fine and no knocking sound.
And guess what, ? something finally gave up (......
Is this what I think it is ?
