09 gs whining noise
Is this a common sound? Seems like it has a whining noise coming from the transmission maybe? I'm new to bikes and not really familiar with all the sounds just yet. Any input is appreciated. Thanks. By the way it's an SE5 with 1200 miles on it.

If you are referring to sounds the makes when backing up, its very normal. Forward, not so sure there.

Take it to the dealer and they let you know if it should concern you. Did it happen before?

When I'm going in first gear around 15Mph, mine makes an intermittent whining noise. I assume it's normal

Mine has loud exhaust on it. That fixes a lot of things

Im guessing it's kinda normal. It is in lower gears also. The closest can am shop is about an hour away. I really wished there was more certified ppl around to work on them.

It also could be the belt is too tight. You can jack it up and turn the rear tire by hand and take a listen. The first time I did it I was shocked to hear the belt groaning loudly. I then loosened it up (you can look up the Krik-it II thread for instructions) and the groaning went away. Although, I still get the brake squeal when in reverse.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!
have your dealer check the front drive pulley! The teeth on mine was almost stripped out. Had my wife's replaced at the same time. Her's had just started breaking too.

What's up with the brake squeal in reverse? Mine does it too. Starting thinking my brakes was going bad.
