Weird hissing coming out of the front near the radiator when accelerating
hi there i just recently installed my exhaust and noticed after a while that there is a weird hissing like sound coming out of the radiator every time i accelerate i do mostly highway riding at around 120 kmh at around 8500rpm so the engine is always working is it because of that? or something else
thanks! |

The exhaust headers are close to the radiator. My guess is you have an exhaust leak that's hissing, and it sounds like it's coming from the radiator.
Always suspect that the last thing you did before the problem started could have caused the problem.

Your bike can do 12k rpm all day long for years if you do proper maintenance.

99% of times, the new problem is in the last thing that you touched.
Forget the radiator and focus on exhaust.
