I'm going to necro my thread because apparently the sound has returned. I believe this is because winter is approaching and it's pretty cold in the early mornings.

Anyway, on the internet, "pics or it didn't happen" means I need to show you guys what the problem is. And since now I know how to cause it to happen, I captured it with a ghetto camera setup.

Here it is!

Link to original page on YouTube.

This video was taken at 5:30 AM. Bike was last used the day before during the morning so it had ample time to cool off.

You can only see the gauges in the video because I wanted to bring your attention to some things.

1) After the sound starts at 1:26 minute mark, I pull in the clutch and revv the engine. The sound doesn't change. (Yeah I know it's loud!)

2) Next, I hit the engine kill switch.

3) Next, I turn off the ignition.

The only thing that changes the sound is wheel speed. It didn't happen when I tried to replicate it a second time in the video. Of course, I might have totally missed something.

Anyway, let me know what you guys think. Oh and I know I'm not an experienced rider.
