| Just wondering if others have experienced a lot of plastic rattle noise from the front end when accelerating from a stop. It seems to fade once I reach a speed of around 30 mph and/or once the clutch has engaged. At cruise it is a smooth and quiet machine. The noise seems to be more pronounced with harder acceleration (more throttle) from a standing start.
Is this noise typical or is there something loose in the front end plastic of my scooter? |

| I believe it was DennisB had some posts pertaining to ridding his Silverwing of rattles, you may be able to find them with a search. Sometimes just moving around or removing some stuff from the storage boxes in the dash will stop some rattles. |
