Strange engine noises
I recently bought a 2014 Harley Sportster 883 from the dealership new. I broke it in well and towards 900 miles I started to hear a sort or chirping coming from the motor at certain places in the throttle. I took it in for my 1000 mile servicing and got all fluids changed, went from commercial to synthetic and then the mechanic took the bike out for a test ride. He brought it back and didn't say anything about the chirping. He tightened the throttle and the noise started to show up earlier in accelerations. I have noticed no loss in power or acceleration although the noise hasn't gone away. I'm worried this isn't a break in noise and something I need to get fixed, I haven't found any loose bolts or anything that seems like it could be causing the problem. Please help
