I test rode a 2016 XR yesterday. I heard a whining sound as it geared down and/or slowed down to a stop. It didn't sound familiar or right. I rode one about a year ago and don't recall hearing this. I am looking at getting on another XR before I full the trigger on this deal that otherwise looks good. My other bike is a K 1200 S who's transmission just blew on me....... but it was pretty quiet when it worked. Anybody have anything on this? Is it common or is it the red flag I think it is?
