As title suggest I get a weird buzzing/humming noise from the right side/front side of the bike (R1200RT 2014 wethead) after turning on the key. Seems like the sound stops when actually starting the bike but this humming noise remains and doesn't go away unless starting or turning off the bike.
Anybody got any experience with this issue?
for the audio
Whirling/humming noise when turning on the electronics?

I think mine sounds like that too. I would not worry about it it’s probably just the fuel pump or other peripherals getting ready.

Have you an Evap on your bike as it sounds like gases. My Himalayan sounded the same after switching off. It was the movement of gases being releasted into the charcoal canister.
