Could you be more specific? A lot of us had rear tire cupping issues.  The rear tire will whine or sing, especially in the turns.  If you could describe the sound, it would help.

I had a whining noise especially in the corners.  It would make you cut down your stereo, lean your head back over your shoulder, and think "WTF is that noise and where is it coming from!?"  If this is what you are doing, you have developed a "cupped" rear tire.  It's what happened to my stock Dunlop at 9000 miles.  Took it in, they measured with tire gauge.  HD replaced the tire at 1/2 price and free labor.  It's covered by Dunlop warranty.

I've had rear end noise in the past but there are pills for that now.... :huepfenlol2:

Sorry, just a little Friday humor.....very little.... ::)

Belt tight/loose, tire whine, breaks?????

If you are speaking of the fender itself (maybe a rattle?), I had a bit of vibration rattle coming from the back at one point.  Between the fender and saddle bag supports, there is some double stick rubber tape (I'm assuming a factory "fix" for this) and one side had lost the sticky and was coming out.  I loosened everything, replaced the rubbery tape with new and no rattles from then on....just throwing stuff out there for you.

My dealer accomplished above shortly after I took delivery of my 2012 CVORGC.  It was a horrible rattle
