Sound of coming from dashboard
Every time I hit a large bump or accelerate quickly (in kickdown position, even on buttery smooth pavement), a sound, what sounds like bells jingling/rattle for a second or two, comes from the dashboard. This has been going on for quite some time now, but I've ignored it because its not loud enough to where it seriously bothers me.
Anyone else experienced this before? I'm thinking the vibration is affecting some part of the dashboard.

same problem....
I got the same problem but never really had time to take it out or even worry about it too much. I ride with the sport mode on so my suspension is stiff but I notice if I turn it off, the rattling sound is gone. I'm assuming its a loose screw but I can't seem to find the screw unless I take out the instrument cluster or dashboard. Anyone please shine some light into this issue.
