Just got it firing!
I've got a '14 Cali 1400 Touring with 5K miles -
I've test ridden other bikes with this problem, most notably a demo K1600GT, so this isn't a slag on MG tech - but I've got a clunk over every small edge or low speed pot hole.
I've searched around the internet, and causes run the gamut of head bearings being loose, too light fork oil, floating calipers --
It sounds like it's bottoming, but the bumps are minor, so it can't be. I'm not worried about safety, but really, should a $19K list cruiser make this noise? Before I enlist my local service guy to changing out fork oil (he's not entirely sure what it is either), I thought I'd ask around -- any one else have this problem? Any one else found the definitive solution?
Thanks,
