2010/11 CVO Street Glide Brake Light Issues?
« on: August 08, 2010, 10:26:33 PM »

Has anyone had problems with rattling comming from the brake light brackets?  I've tried tightening everything down but I'm still having issues between 2000-3000 RPM.  Any help would be appreciated.

The rattle might be coming from inside the mufflers...

I installed 2010 CVO Street Glide mufflers on my 2010 Road Glide Custom and when I was removing the stock baffles to install the Fullsac 2" baffles, the fiberglass packing has a metal mesh surrounding it, I noticed that it was a little loose.. so now I also have a rattle coming from the rear of the bike and I have traced it to the left muffler, I'm almost 100% sure it's that metal mesh surrounding the packing inside the muffler.

I'm going to remove the packing and see what effect it has on the tone of the exhaust.

Thanks for the heads up on the pipes but I've confirmed it's the taillight brackets in my situation.  I'm going to take it to the dealership next weekend.  Keep us updated on your pipe's though, I'd like to know what it does to the sound and the performance.  Mine are a little too quiet for my taste.

I had the same issue and it was the license plate rattling  between the bracket and the plate cover.
