Up front, I'll tell you I'm brand new to the GL1800 world. But I just bought my new (to me) '02 with 4K miles on it last weekend. I've only got to put a few miles on it, but was a little concerned with a whining noise that is engine speed related. The sound is something like you hear from serpentine belts on automobiles.
Is this normal? Will the whine get louder, or quieter? I've ordered the manuals and will also be taking it in for a checkup before spring. The bike runs flawlessly - and otherwise quiet. But didn't want to cause any damage if this isn't normal.
Thanks for your input.
