HMMM....The only real way i can ask this is: Does any1's VT out there rattle as bad as mine does????? I thought VT's were meant to be pretty quiet and sound proof?. Mines a VT S. Any way is there a way i could somehow shut it up?

VT's the new rattle boxes - replacing the VN/VP as rattle boxes.

The only way is with a tube of sealer and glue stuff down or rip it out.

Engine mounts were a mojor contributer to my VN rattles. Also the hard ass shocks and springs that were in my car. Got rid of shocks/springs for a more standars setup and replaced the engine mounts. Glued all the door trims, zip tied all the wires inside the doors. and some of the large plastic plugs have rag tied around them.

If you drive your car on a daily basis, VTs would just about reach the age of "old" car, so yes there would be some rattliing, noises etc. Mine creaks, cracks and generally makes little noises every now and then going over rough surfaces, bumps, small pot holes, roadkills....but nonetheless its still fairly quiet, not as quiet as the later models where all the screws, nuts, bolts, rivets etc are nice and tight.
