I've got a 2007 sporster 883 with 1600 miles. The engine seems noisey(my first Harley) everybody tells me that is normal. Can anything be done to quiet it down a little, Maybe a type of oil??

My front brakes grind all the time I just had it in for a recall \\;on the exhaust and \\;they did'nt mention anything about the noisey engine or brakes so I gues it's OK. Just wanted to get some input from other sportser owners. I love the bike and really enjoy riding it.

Thanks,
