+1 on the last gasp suck on shutdown. Mine has always done it. Started
hearing it after the high flow air cleaner was installed.

It could be that you are pulling up next to a female Harley when you are shutting down. Your bike is just whistling to show its appreciation at its nice lines. Actually +1 on what they said above.

If it were a Gold Wing, I'd say your tea is ready.
