I liked the gear whine, had me flashing back to the old panhead chopper days. Comes from the counter balance and I think the primary . I really want a look see inside one of those.

My impression is it came from the front of the primary. So what you say makes sense now.

I have to say if I could afford one, I'd be buying a Road Glide. I was that impressed.

I've become fond of the fuglies too lately. Haven't driven a '17 and likely won't either. Don't want to be tempted.
