Hi Group,
I just bought a 2014 FJRA with 15k miles, I am the second owner.
The bike runs great, handles well, but there is a gear whine, almost sounds like a mechanical supercharger.... but of course it´s not. Also, wondering if the tweeting intake sound is normal, kind of reminds me of a high pitched VW exhaust sound????

Are these things common for the FJR´s as this is my first!
Thanks in advance, Bruce
