I took a look and my stops almost look worn. The little piece that extends down about 1/8"seems rolled over or rounded off might be a better way of puting it. I thought they were suppose to came straight down. I willtake it in under warranty. I just thought there might be a "quick fix".

I would get a clunk when coming out of the driveway w/ the wheel turned to the right and the suspension compressing. The dealership had to lube the stops and the problem went away. That lasted for about a year and just come back recently.

I shouldn't be reading these forums they just make me depressed. I just bought my Raider and when I drove it home, I drive into the driveway and I heard a clunk. I thought it was my bike carrier that I had in the hitch but not I'm not sure. And the worst thing is that I can't check on it until I get home in a month
