Title: odd squeeking sound
Post by onedivision on 08/03/09 at 00:42:12

Recently, my '07 has strarted to make an odd squeeking sound from the engine- just until it gets warmed up & only while riding. After a couple of mins., it slowly disappears. Any suggestions as to what my be causing this? Thanks in advance, John

It might be the drive belt. Mine will squeek if it gets wet. Could be a little moisture that dries up after it runs a bit.

Mice in the drive belt. Switch to chain.

If your rear tire isn't aligned properly, the belt will squeak.

If you find its the drive belt, do a search for info on realigning it. For the quick fix, I use bees wax. I scrape a a bit on boths edges of the belt (that are easy to get at)a couple times a week. This keeps the squeek subdued.
