Strange whistling noise??????
In any gear, I have a loud whistling noise between 40 and 60 MPH. I almost thought it was a high pitched beep at first because it doesn't change in tone, and it's not louder or softer. Even the others I ride with can hear it and I clueless on what it could be.. It's a 2013 14R with less than 100 miles on it.... Anyone else have this issue or know what it could be???

be careful and put it up on a swing arm stand running it at the speed you said.See if it`s wind noise or drive/ engine noise.

I would just make sure all your bolts are tight, check the fairing stay near the head.

Never ride faster than angels fly... the whistling is them bailing off.
