Engine whistle
Re: Engine whistle
Mine did that last time I had the air box off. One of the pipes connecting to the airbox was not seated properly.

I'll give them a good home, if you can't get it sorted.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Re: Engine whistle
My last engine did this, it was a super high pitch whine i would notice it in low gears going round a round about, and it wasn't a typical straight cut gear box noise.
i thought i was going mad, was it wind noise in the helmet i often thought, is it just my ears going funny after 20 miles on the motorway?
after about about 6 month it got slightly more and more noticeable till the engine developed its knock
i'm thinking it was some sort of bearing whining noise, new engine is free from this thankfully
