Default Strange Noise
Hello All; I've got a 2013 superglide with a noise coming from the right side of the bike, sounds something like a dry bearing chirp, i'm thinking maybe even a exhaust leak? Anyway going to take it to the stealer tomorrow. we shall see. Bike only has 600 miles.

I also get a buzzing noise when I apply the front brake, it is common.
Harmonics between the holes in the rotor and pads.
