    Hi guys can u help
    Had a 2015,2019 and now have a 2021 plate and when slowing down below 3000-4000 revs the new bike makes a horrible whining noise but goes when the clutch is pulled🤔🤔 nothing like the super noise the 2019 used to make 🤬🤬 is this the new ulezz rules in the European market that has added this dreadful whining noise. Please help? Hopefully this makes sense as just ride bike and no nothing else🤦‍♂️😂👍🏻 cheers guys

    Wish I could help more; mine sometimes whines around 4000 at steady speed, I noticed it several times on a recent trip but it wasn’t consistent and I never figured it out, nevertheless it was definitely disconcerting.

    I've been listening to mine since reading this post. My gen 2 is definitely a more muted and slightly higher pitch that the deeper rumble of my old gen 1. That said I'm not hearing a whining that goes when pulling the clutch in.

    It's definitely quieter with ear plugs in !

    Cheers for that👍🏻 it’s only in 2nd gear when slowing down coming through 4000 to 3000 revs, the noise goes when clutch is engaged. Like u said it’s muted horrible sound not like the pop and bang of the gen 1 bike. Going to test ride a new one to see if it’s the same. Just doesn’t sound as good but probably down to European laws🤬🤬🤬🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️😂😂
