July 22, 20197 yr My front brake rotor appears to be loose. Bolts are tight. Is this thing suppose to be like this? (Video attached) https://youtu.be/r1_dK_JZuS0
July 23, 20197 yr Author It floats alright! My race bikes have floating discs but this seems like a caveman’s version!

July 23, 20197 yr Fill the bobbins round with sikoflex, like a Cush drive, it’s still allows movement but a lot less! Edited July 23, 20197 yr by imexian
July 23, 20197 yr Fire up the engine, most times the rattle is more difficult to hear then. If it really is a bother, add a slight bit of front brake as you ride, Yes, my 2005 rattles a bit. Could be wrong, but thought I saw in a parts book, O rings are used to lessen the noise.
July 23, 20197 yr Author Thanks for the input guys. I don’t notice it or hear it while riding. I was practicing balancing (unsuccessfully, I might add) in the shop last night and felt it. Reminded me of loose steering head bearings. As far as looking at another trials bike, I’m relatively sure I have the only one in the whole county! LOL! i have a parts manual, I’ll look and see if they have anything different than what I’m running. I appreciate you guys taking the time to answer all my dumb questions!
September 7, 20196 yr I also wondered about this. I thought my headset was clunking but nope just a lot of slop on the front disk. Thanks for asking saved me the trouble.
