Whistling sound.

[Ged]

Hey everyone not been on in a while I hope everybody is okay, I've been out on my bike not that much, but I couldn't help but notice a whistling sound when I drop gears, I hope it's nothing serious any ideas? Any help would be appreciated.

I've also got an engine light on I'm gonna head down to my local garage also I've not had a service I think it'll be that I'm not sure.

Does it whistle if you blip the throttle in neutral? Could be an air leak. But could also be chain related, just depends on what it actually sounds like. Mention it when you book it in.

are you sure the whistle is bike related Not your helmet visor whistling if its become loose/ Deformed / open

I've merged your threads and put them in the right place

Sounds likely to be the chain to me!

Thanks for all your suggestions, I'm going to book it in the shop on Tuesday, I've not ridden it consistently for a while on and off, I've bee very anxious when riding around on it I'm slowly over coming it though.

I'll do a follow up reply once the mysterious engine light diagnosis is found cheers and thanks.

Just a quick conclusion about the bike guys, turns out it was just a throttle sensor. It was nothing major. Thanks for all your suggestions.

Was it the Whistlers mother or the mothers Whistler?
