02- 700, annoying rattles
Ureeka!!! if anyone has been plagued with metalic rattle noises on their 700's I conquered 3 of them.
1- under the seat on the left side the brake line touches the frame. Fix- a piece of split heater hose & zip ties (eventually would have rubbed a hole in the brake line)
2- Exaust pipe front right side (the Mother of all noises) Fix- tighten the rubber isolation gromet on the exaust bracket, AHH!
3- Exaust manifold where the tension spring attaches to the frame, the spring touches where the bracket is welded to the exaust. Fix- a piece of split heater hose & zip ties around the spring (on mine the brackett would have worn through the spring eventually)
I hope this helps anyone with this problem, it drove me FRIGGEN NUTS for months the noises are like a ventriloquist no matter where you look it sounds like it's comming from some where else.
