Touring 2008 Road King

Anyone knows how come on big pumps it seems like the front fork bottoms out and clicking noise is so apparent is that normal. The dealer said it is normal and nothing is wrong.
Thanks,

Not enough info here, buddy. You might want to start with defineing HOW big IS big and how FAST were/are you hitting these bumps ????

[superchicken]

nothing wrong, put some better fork oil in it

Super Chicken:

How can you give that advice to maherjad with little to no info on what he is asking? He could have nothing wrong or other problems.

maherjad: Explain what you mean. Big Bump and how fast?

I believe Ken and JC are absolutely right-on again to ask for more info about your possible prob.. Tell us more about the clicking..

If there is nothing else wrong,,, then draining the forks and filling with a heavier fluid will prob be the answer like Super suggests..


I use very heavy fluid..

[maherjad]

The speed is about 10 - 15 mph and the pumps is like a speed pumps and the clicking is not that laoud but it is there. I hope that helps but the bike is brand new with only 400 miles and I would rather not change the oil.
Thanks,
Matt

Yer hitting those big @&& speed bumps at 15mph?? Lucky that aint the only thing clicking... Slow the F... down when you come to them. Heavier fluid aint going to dim that.
