Default Hello

Gues I will have to start posting in this forum now....

Just bought a new Street Glide.

Really like it so far. Got back on my Low Rider yesterday and took it for a spin, that was very strange.

One question.

Noticing a strange noise coming from the primary about 2500 3000 rpms. In gear or in neutral. Anyone had this before?

Default 1st and 5th are sometimes noisy

Mine is a little noisy in 1st and 5th. From what I've read it is normal. There are also oils that can reduce the wine and clunking from neutral to first. What type of noise are you experiencing? Can you put it to words?
