OMG What is that noise!
Posted: Mon Sep 16, 2024 11:14 am
I've had the bike about 3 months and really do like it and have no intentions of selling any time soon.
I'm trying to get to the bottom of a medical condition that is curtailing my riding a bit but will get through it.
On Friday night I went out to check out the headlights as the early nights are coming. I didn't go for the le version, opting to leave off the adaptive lights, central locking and alarm. I'm more than happy as it is and the lights are pretty much as good as a car.
On the way home, I got on the motorway and put the screen up to it's fullest hight and, as I was getting up to 70 mph, got a full on WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH sort of noise!
I suspect it's the tyres, michelin road 5 gt. I also have the small MRA vario spoiler set in its lowest position.
I've never experienced anything like this in almost 30 years riding. I did get the horrible grating noise on a short lived gs with the Michelin anakee tyres.
I never normally need the screen in its top position, this is the first time it's been fully up at motorway speeds.
Is this something anyone else has experienced? Is it a known thing?
Thanks
Paul
