I had a noise start in the front end of the bike it kinda sounds like a motor running or the fan behind the radiator... It only starts to make noise around 30 mph like the wind is catching so,etching but when I pull in the clutch and coast it's quits before I stop... It's not the fan or the motor I reached down when riding to see.... Any ideas . It did quit when I hit a pot hole too ? Maybe the front bearing  It's not grinding though any thoughts guys ?? |

How does the tack look while it's making the noise? Is there any bounce in the needle? If so it could either be a bad tack cable or the gears in the tack itself may be worn

Speedometer sending unit on front wheel (where speedo casble attaches) dirty...needs cleaning & greased.

So you guys were right again as usual it was the speedometer itself .... I squirted some grease in there and she's back in business
now I can hear a similar noise coming from the back end by the wheel

Check the belt alignment....could be the belt rubbing the side of the rear sprocket.......or, hopefully not, a rear wheel bearing.

Is there a way to adjust it besides adjusting the the bolts on the swing arm?
