some times when I shut my bike off it makes a small squeaking noise is this normal? If not what would be the cause of this? Should I be afraid? | ||

Coming from where? My bikes squeaks whenever I'm pushing, rolling really slow from the front pulley. I never did figure out what that was from. | ||

sounds like it is coming from the engine. It only happens some times right when I shut the engine off. | ||
| Brinnutz |
Does it sound like its on the right side coming from the air cleaner? | ||
| Firebolt020283 |
yea I think it does | ||
| Brinnutz |
Do you have an aftermarket air cleaner? I have a forcewinder, and if it's the same "squeak," which sounds more like a whistle when you think about it. Then, I know exactly what your talking about. I don't exactly know what it is, but mine does it occasionally as well. Anyone else care to chime in? | ||

yea I have the forcewinder as well. I think that might bee the same thing its like a whistle. | ||

More like a wheeze. It's normal. | ||

good thats all i needed to know. | ||

yeah, if you put your ear next to the air cleaner when the bike is idleing and frog the gas a little, you'll here the A/C. My last two hurricane-flow air cleaners made the same noise. I don't know if it's because of the K&N filters or the better air-flowing design the setup itself that cause the noise, but it is normal. | ||

Yeah i also have a force winder and i hear the same thing everytime I shut it off. I always just thought it was the carb. Like the throttle plate or whatever closing. Good to know its normal though |
