Default Fuel pump noise, need help

My 06 street glide fuel pump whines when running, Same noise as whe you first turn the key on. It runs good other than a little caugh at low rpms every now and then. But I can defiantly tell its the pump. I have the tank off right now and checked the inside fuel lines. I do not see any holes. I am going to replace them since I'm already in their. Could the holes be so small I wouldn't notice them? I'm kinda confused about this. I thought for sure I nada hole on on of the lines.

There is gotta be a hole in your fuel pickup hose............or worst case scenario is bad bearings in the fuel pump.

Default Same Noise

I have an 08 FLHT, makes the same noise. Thought it was just the fuel pump maintaining correct pressure for EFI. Bike runs fine. Dealer was just in the tank doing a recall. Let us know what you find.

Thanks
