Pinking noise from front wheel

(1/3) > >>

Green1:
Ash's post has just reminded me. I have had a few wheels respoked and never come across this before my 550 front wheel has been recently respoked and it makes a loud pinking noise when wheeling the bike about.

There doesn't seem to be any loose or overly tightened spokes so what would cause it?   

RGP750:
Disconnect the speedo drive and try it!!!

Green1:
Tried that at first I thought it was the cable itself as that was making a racket but that has now been replaced as the old one snapped.

It even does it when you turn the bars and the bike is stationary.

RGP750:
Have you got loose change in your trouser pocket? ;D ;D ;D
Weird! need to be there really.

Just checked the only thing I found in my pockets were some nuts  ::)
