new 2012 250 Ninja moans??

When I park my 2012 250 Ninja after a ride I'll start to hear like moans from the engine or lower gas tank area. I am thinking vacuum/air is bleeding from somewhere that's obvious what I'm not certain about is this normal or is something (valve etc.) defective??

I bought her new a couple weeks ago and have about 1500 miles so far. Heading out on a trip this weekend to the Wauseon Vintage Motorcycle Swap meet.
