i think im starting to hear a whining noise
So im riding today when its 90 degrees and im beating on the bike alittle hard. I guess Im getting alittle to comfortable on my my bike to beat on her alittle. Anyway when i stopped at a red light i heard alittle whinning noise from the bottom of the eninge, sound like a bearing thats on its way out. Im second guessing myself to see if that noise was always there, very hard to tell with my pipes. The noise matches the rpms higher alittle bit louder. I did bang it into second today but i dont do burnouts or overrev the thing. any ideas guys?

My bike has 2000 miles on it and recently started whining as well. I just had my 1000 mile check 2 wks. ago. Could it be the chain tensioner?
