Annoying Rattle

...just wrapped some rubber tape over the tab and put it all back together..the additional fender extender i have vibrates it a bit...ah well!...what the hell!...
 
Glad to hear it was just the fender. Mine was both front brake calipers
 
When I first received the bike, was wiping it down and when wiping the front fender I heard a rattle as if something was loose, and sure enough the screws holding the grey plastic part of the fender were loose. I was surprised thinking didn't (shouldn't) the dealer have checked all screws and bolts and torqued them to specs before delivery! 3 of 4 were loose. tightened them.
Haven't heard anything since only because the bike has been parked in the effin garage because of the effin snow and sh!tty weather. I need to move
 
we all need to move
 
Found my rattle. Pulled the front fender, put some gorilla tape on the tabs and put it back on. No more noise when I tapped it. Unfortunately when I went for a ride to check it out, the rattle was still there. Started doing some 30mph motorcycle yoga reaching around and grabbing everything I could. Turns out my rattle was the headlight assembly. Pulled over and gave it a good wiggle and shake, no more rattle!

Not a permanent cure I'm sure but at least when it comes back I know where to look!
 
Same with mine
 
Same here also, so it's like a pandemic issue
