Suzi hums to me!!

Might be my good drugs but Suzi has a pretty good hum in a left hand turn at speed. Can play a tune by varying the lean factor. I have been trying to rationalize that the oil level is changing side to side. Has anyone else noticed this. I have checked the spokes and wheel bearings. Either a natural phenomenon or the voices in my head are returning!!! Smiley Smiley Smiley

Could be the tire!!! Have about 7500 on the original rear. Tread getting a little thin in the center. I spent 20 years around B52s and KC-135s with water injection motors. My high piched hearing isn't quite what it used to be. Will have to listen more closely for front or rear. Thanks for the input!!

Left or right, I have tire tread hum on turns.   It was a bit annoying untill I got a dyna muffler and did the card mod's.  Now having too much fun to notice  Grin

I noticed a hum today but nothing that is not too tolerable.. I'm looking at putting the screamin eagle exhaust on my bike so i'm sure the hum i hear is going to disappear soon too.
