beeping noise
I just got a new 06 ninja zx-10r and I'm hearing a beeping noise (electronic sounding) 3 beeps in a row then later more beeps mainly when I'm coming to a stop but not all of the time . It's not real loud buy it is annoying. I took it back to the dealer and they never heard of a beeping coming from a bike and Kawasaki said there is nothing on the bike that would beep . Any Ideas?

A "HELMET" is what keeps you from becoming a veggie in case of an accident. I have no idea what a "helment" is. It seems some people don't have a spell checker. Well "stupid is as stupid does "

it's the clutch making the noise. when it's hot and I pull in the clutch it makes the noise. From the side it sounds more like a clicking sound but as the sound travels up the fairing it sounds like its beeping. The dealer said to "break it in" and see if the sound goes away which I'm doing but I think the sound is getting worse so I going to take it back in.

I used to have a service manager who would say stuff like that. The old.............
" just keep riding it and see if it gets better"
line.
If you think something is wrong take it in and ask them to please check it over for you.

The dealer is WEST COAST in perris, ca. Well I took it to the dealer and their guys "checked it out" they didn't open the clutch they just listened to the noise (which is louder now) and said it's normal. Then a Rep from the company said it's a normal sound. So I called the service manager and she said there is nothing they can do, call Kawasaki . Then Kawasaki said " the rep says it's normal and there's nothing they can do, talk to the dealer or pay to have it opened and looked at and if the is a problem is a defect they will pay for it. So I may have to pay for something they can't find. I called both the dealer and Kawasaki again to talk to someone higher up and Kawasaki was just a run around (Jackasses!). The dealer is going to try to setup a meeting with the rep and I so we can all hear it at the same time. I have taked to other Kawasaki ZX10R owners and they don't have the sound. So it can't be normal.
