Best thing is to stop worrying about them and just ride the thing. The more you worry the more "noises" you hear.

Rattling started again today on the front CCT.

10 months of normal daily commuting of up to 10 miles a day, and the odd blast in the country. Yet again Honda have a lot to answer for.

Some day after I win the largest Lotto win, I'll use part of it to take Honda to court. Ba$tards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
