Anybody notice a buzzing sound as you build up speed om the bike in 2nd or 3rd gear? My bike sounds like small buzzy horn is blowing.

Mine makes a buzzing at about 4500 in any gear. haven't been able to track it down yet. Anyone got any ideas?

That's about the same rpm for me. It sounds like a rattle of a loose fitting or something in the cluster. I am guessing we will soon be told it is the nature of the shaking beast.

I've got just under 12,000 on mine and it started not too long ago. Thing is I brought it to the dealer with my stock headlamp assembly to get the cluster replaced (needle fell off) then put my HID headlamp assembly back in. So I now have a new cluster and a different headlamp assembly but the noise is still there. I'm lost, should have left the headlamp and fairing off to see if it quit. I might remove that stuff yet just to check, unless someone chimes in.

I only run the single Buell key, no key chain at all.
