Yeah, kind of embarrassing when you pull up and shut it down when people are around.

my Heritage makes that sound, noticeable in my garage but not when I'm outside.

Oops I've hit the shut off button twice in a parking lot, very embarrassing - thought my bike had broken down but realized it was my own damn fault.

Hey, I have to thank you folks for solving a minor mystery for me!!!!!! My rocker makes that same noise sometimes and I kind of ignore it...I figured it did not blow up, so keep on riding!
