so i'm having a heck of a time isolating this weird noise that just started occurring this season (13k miles on '03 svs). it only happens when first starting off from a dead stop...clunk, clunk...and sometimes a third clunk. can't really feel anything, and bike seems to be running just fine otherwise, but it almost seems to be coming from the fork. closest sound i can relate it to is when i've nailed a big ass pothole and the front end makes an awful clunk. front end is still completely stock...i know, i know...i should have dumped that crap oil out of there long ago...and replacing the springs wouldn't be a bad idea either.
i realize i dont have a lot of info to give, but this noise is really bugging the crap outta me and i was just hoping maybe someone might have some insight to share as to what i should check. i'm not absolutely positive, but pretty damn sure the noise is NOT coming from the engine. i don't really feel anything, and it's not really loud, even kinda hard to hear with a helmet on if you're not listening for it, but it's definitely there....
thanks in advance for any help!
