Yes I know all about the "I heard a weird noise emitting from my new bike" syndrome. But I have to ask. Has anyone ever heard of this "problem"?
There´s a whistle-sound when you push the throttle. And it only occurs when you´re in gear. And no, it´s not the wind going past my head. :-D
It starts at slow speeds to. The bike´s not losing power or anything but it´s bugging me all the same!
Can it have anything with me washing the bike? Or can it be linked to the 80km service which I had it in for recently?

There´s also a sound from the brakedisc´s when you push the bike by hand, but I'm assuming this is because the bike/brakes are totally new? (this is my first "new" bike, so to speak)

I had a similar sound on my new 06 after riding in the rain and then washing it - ended up being the chain needed to be lubed. Sound is gone now I asked this question a few weeks ago and got that advice
