First part to break??
Well, it finally happened. I was pushing my bike out the rear gate to hit the road for a ride. When I went over an uneven patio block, I heard something rattle,...almost jingle?? I put the bike on it's side stand in the alley and began to shake and bounce the bike in every way I could to track down the origin of the sound. It was coming from the fork / fender / headlamp area??
Then, just by a fluke, I seen something move behind the headlamp lens. There is a frame or bracket around the lamp that had broken free of the reflector and was rattling around inside the headlamp reflector. It has put two scratches about 4 ins. long, in the shape of a smile on the bottom of the reflector. Obviously this had broken free 2 or 3 rides earlier by the amount of scratches.
I took the lamp apart and removed the offending POS. It still works, both high and low,...except for the scratches.
Anyone experience anything similar?
