New Ninja 1 week old making Noise need input ?
Hi all
Purchased 2 new 2011 ninja 250s. One for me and for wife. Now the wifes ninja when its not even On.. Every now and then will make a noise . Best way to describe it lol would be like a squuezing a clowns toys. Honkkkk Not to loud and last about 1 seconds and can happen 3 times within 5 mins or not happen at all for 3 hours ? The only thing i did was install frame sliders and had a hell of time doing it. So i wonder if i ended up doing something, Possible with the Hose thats hooked to Rad since i had to work around it for the frame sliders ? The bikes has no problems and runs fine. Any ideas would be apreciated Thanks |

It's common with all our 250's for the gas tank to build up pressure and have said pressure released making a whining sound. This happens with mine all the time, next time u hear it, just open the gas cap to release the pressure and the noise should go away. Most members here think it's the way our 250's talk to us .

I thought it was the Gas tank as well. But the bike has 10km on it. Only drove it like 5 times. for 5 mins
It sounds like a Fart almost. Is this the gas tank issue lol ? Thanks for quick replies I have already opened the gas tank a few times as well. But the noise happens so fast i dont have time to confirm if opening tank resolves it |

If the sound is coming from when it's off, I wouldnt worry much about it. It's the noises while it's running that make me nervous. Especially the grinding kind.

The motors heat is rising and heating up the fuel in the gas tank, raising the pressure in the gas tank. hence the whistle.
Move the bike from a cool garage outside in the sun and within 5 min the sun will warm the fuel in the tank and the bike will whistle. without even starting it. NO BIG DEAL. There is a thread here to stop it.

To save KKim the trouble: Your motorcycle is broken. He will take it for free for disposal, just crate it up and ship it to him

Thanks everyone for the replies. Im not sold on the fact that its the gas. Since like i said it has 10km on it and only been riding a few times for less then 10mins each time. Its in garage full time and hasnt been in the sun.
I have a feeling i messed something up when i was putting the frame sliders cause it didnt do that noise before lol We have 2 ninja 250s and got em both same day mine and hers and Mine i havent done the frame sliders yet.. hehe a little bugged out about the weird noise The bike is still under Full wanrantee so i guess until SHE NOTICES cause she hasnt yet i leave it at that : ) lol |

We all know about the gas tank pressure sound. Your bike don't have to be in the sun for it to occur. I keep mine in the garage and it has done it since I filled the first tank at 2 miles on the od. I would assume that is your issue as well, but no sense taking chances. There is enough risks on the road without adding to them. When it comes to riding.... take care of your machine, it will take care of you. Besides, you may learn something in the process. What you don't know CAN hurt you.

lol, I should go record mine. As another has pointed out, it happens almost every time I go in the garage with no intent to ride. It's like it knows....
