Hello, I recently picked up a CVO Ultra Classic from a dealership in FL, and drove it to my home in NC. I love it, and more importantly, my wife adores it. The bike rides great...but during my trek, I heard a whining sound from right side of bike (transmission) only in 5th gear. Would appreciate any comments or thoughts before I bring it to a dealer. Thanks.

 

They all whine in 5th gear. It's the way the gear is cut. Nothing to worry about.

 

Is it an 07? Almost all of them do it.

 

Thanks. I feel a lot better. Keep ridin

 

it's an "09" Thanks

 

Put some Redline Shockproof in it. It'll help quiet it down & smooth the shifts some.

 

... and if it's new it just needs some miles to settle down and break in. What a great bike! Post pictures!

 

it's a beauty.

 

Turn the radio up, and the whine seems to go away. LoL

 

Funny, Thats how I quiet the whine from the back seat when she thinks she can drive from back there
