Default 2012 Fatboy Lo Buzz

I recently purchased a 2012 Lo....My first Harley. I only have 300 mi on the bike and am loving it, but there is this annoying buzz i get when cruising and going through the gears. Seems to be coming from the headlight housing area and happens around the the same rpms each time. Any thoughts?

check the trim ring and make sure it's tight. The other thing you might check is the throttle cables might be rubbing against the back side of the shroud that covers the fork. That's all I can think of right now.

Maybe bees made a nest in there?

You DO have the "B" motor, after all!

Trim ring is tight and the throttle cables aren't touching. Wonder if it's the mount? If I can't figure it out, then I guess I will have them check it at the 1000mi service.
