I have a 05 with 40k miles that has developed some od noises as of late. The electronic sound the bike makes when the ignition is turned on has gone to an abnormal squelching sound. The bike starts and runs normally so I thought I would just live with it until today I started the bike and noticed a new sound, like something rapping against the inner fairing. I turned the bike off and it continued to make the rapping sound with very irregular intervals. I went ahead and rode home 50 miles (no choice) didn't hear it on the freeway. The bike ran normal, got home fine, no noise. I'm going to investigate more this weekend, just wondered if anyone else has experienced this odd problem.
