The ones I am replacing are PTA Royal Rain Max - and these have covered at least 40,000 touring miles Any suggestions would be appreciated...

Re: Knocking noise

Thanks Michael4

Over the past week it has developed a 'knocking noise' which seems to be coming from the bottom of the engine area (I don't think its the exhaust). The noise starts quite loud then gradually quietens to...
