the Ferret
Daily rider since May 1965
Last week I put on a new front tire. I had trouble getting the left front caliper back on and in the process, on one attempt, noticed the clevis for the smc was out of alignment, but eventually got everything lined up and installed. Went for a ride yesterday and noticed a tick tick tick sound when rolling slowly and slow speed braking. Not sure if this is the same noise guys are talking about in the SMC threads or not. It's not loud and you really have to listen to hear it. Brakes seem to work fine. Any ideas? Will it hurt to drive it like this? Should I take the left caliper back off and make sure the rod that the clevis pin is attached to is in right? Suggestions?
