Are there others out there that get a sort of whistling sound when winding out their 02-04 Triple? I would guess it's an intake sound, but I'm not sure. It usually is only loud enough to hear when I'm accelerating past 5000 rpm...

I don't necessarily think that anything is wrong, but I am curious about it.

Enjoy the sound. MyS3 induction can suck an OAP right of the footpath shopping trolley and all ...
Enjoy.
ps
Dont worry about a whistle; mine makes all sorts of noises.

Oh yes, that high-mount CF pipe roars :-D It's kinda weird, I only noticed the intake whistle a few months ago.

Can't miss that valve clatter, though :razz:
