Default Front Fender

My front fender is driving me nuts! When the bike is idling and when you take off in first, it makes the most annoying buzzing sound (I haven't noticed the noise at higher speeds/gears). All of the bolts are tight, it's just the very front tip of the fender for some reason rattles. If you touch it lightly it stops. I need to attach a small weight or something underneath it. So my question is, what would you guys recommend using?

Try using a piece of duct tape on it and see if that will stop your rattling. Duct tape should have enough weight to dampen the vibrations.

There should be four rivets under the fender. Most likely one of those has stretched or started to crack. The way the fender is designed, the only way to fix it right is to replace it.

Thanks for that! I'll take a look and see if that is the problem.
