Does the sound change from steady 1/4 throttle cruising to steady 1/2 throttle cruising (regardless of speed)?

Does the starter make any odd sounds when you crank it?

Is it running smoothly the entire time - no stuttering or surging?
Sound only increases/decreases with speed, not revs. If I understood the question correctly.

Starting the bike doesn't make any weird sounds and it runs perfectly, as far as I can tell, except for that whining that drives me crazy.

Could it maybe be the radiator fan? Or something vibrating? I keep seeing random causes for bike whines online and it doesn't make it any easier narrowing it down lol.
