96 Road King, same problem. I'm going to Harley in Chattanooga today, swinging by ACE on the way {thanks to you}. This makes more sense than anything else. Thanks from an old jarhead! Semper Fi.
Thanks. This has been driving me batty trying to figure out where the chattering is coming from. P.S. We give to disable vets of America and Purple heart monthly. Thank you
I have the same issue on a 99 fat boy, i'm hoping that spring will solve my problem.. But don't know as of yet. Until I look into the brake configuration to see if it's a similar design that the Spring will work.
thank you that was my fix for Saturday, first I had to find the rattle , not no more thank's to you . mine rattles intill you touch the brake lever , again thank's
You gotta like it when a regular Joe does the work and gets the job done for engineers, Harley on your behalf should donate to the Vet fund as thanks for saving them a crap load. cheers Bro
Well, I was hoping to be another testimonial to this video. Unfortunately my ‘98 Dyna has a bit different design about the brake caliper. The spring was a no-go for me. Any suggestions?
My apologies but that’s how HD changed things around. Not familiar with your brakes but if you’re mechanically inclined I hope you figure it out. Safe ride.

stay safe
Nice fix for an annoying problem and thanks for sharing. The Harley dealerships are mostly useless for finding solutions to common problems. John
Thanks Diane and John. Happy safe motoring.
I know this video is old. Bought a 2010 Super Glide. It was driving me crazy. Fixed it quick. Thanks
Thanks Daryl for checking out my video. Stay safe when riding.
Thank you Robert for the kind response.

thanks for the vid ..this helps me out
great video going to try it on my 94 fatboy,rattle stops when i touch front brake thanks Carl ?
Did it end up working? I have the same issue
Hey.. love the vid.. I'm getting a duck quacking sound ... Is that the sound? It's usually after I use my front break taking a turn
Yes… this simple light spring eliminated the nosiness while off the brake and in motion.
Brilliant idea
Great idea 💡 thanks
Thank you Brother, I will try this on my 1982 shovelhead
Drive safe and wrench your own ride.
did it work ??
I hope it did .
I have a 1982 FXWG with this problem .

Is that Carl from " Slingblade ". Hmm.
I have tried getting the spring but they do not seem to have it in stock. Do you have a shortcut for it
Just get one close to that size.
That's a 3/8" SOCKET( 10 POINT)- THE DRIVE IS 1/2".Ok, thank you for the video!
Great idea!
I reckon I like them French fries mmmhhhmm😂😂
Are you kidding me? I just tore apart my fork tubes and put them back together trying to figure out what the hell this was. '09 fatbob
Went to ACE , bought the springs. Bastard still chatters !! AAAARRRRRGGG
