I remember that. It was the handle bar clamps on his friends BMW and his friend was affronted at the suggestion of using a beer can to make the shim.

1979 r100rs, theres is a clunk on the front end when hitting a bump or pothole One possibility for fork noise is from the damper valve body. I can't see from the picture you added which design of forks you have but if it's like the one shown below then you can see from the diagram that BMW did a mo...

It's definitiely one of those jobs for a wet day in the shed with some good music.[/color] I did my oil change today. I do normally do it inside the garage and with the radio on.
