Long story - kind of short. Just got the 04 SEEG back from repairs a week ago. Purchased from a member here last October. On second ride out in Oct a young lady in an oncoming car decided to make a left turn in front of me, just as I was entering the intersection, nailed her on the corner of her front bumper. 270 over the bars etc etc etc.
So am just getting familiar with this bike now. They replaced the entire front end. Ride is fantastic. We have had a softail and 3 Ultras, non of them are the solid quality this is. Every ride impresses and leaves me questioning what the difference could be. I expect a difference in handling etc between a ford escort and a lincoln, but don't expect it in these bikes. Would appreciate any feedback.
The real question. As this bike warms up, I am hearing an increasingly louder whrrrrrrr sound coming from front of engine. Wear earplugs all time, at first thought it was wiring noise coming through radio but still there when shut off. Can even hear it when standing away from bike. They did not have to replace any engine components in the fix. Is this a normal sound? Have a 103 in my 07 Ultra but dont hear anything like this??? Also seem like fuel gage may be out or I'm getting about 20mpg. Need to put more miles on it, only mention now in case someone may see a correlation between it and sound.
