RE: Introduction and Buzzing Noise

["Kulp, Andrew" <andrew.kulp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

Thanks for all the input about the buzzing!  At this point I *guess* I am
convinced that it is NOT a low pressure buzzer and that it is simply the
fuel pump pumping it's little heart out.  For the first 600 miles or so it
would come on at initial start-up of the engine and then would stop,
however, now I can now here it for my entire commute into and back from
work; 40 miles and ~50 minutes each way.  Does anyone else have this
"feature"? Should the system simply "pressurize" or should the pump run
constantly?  I mostly just want to know if I should be concerned, since I am
not extremely confident in my local dealer.

Thanks.
Andy

Buzzing Noise
This sounds very like the fuel-pump getting up to pressure, some bikes do
it, some don't; it doesn't seem to hurt anything. The T509/595 also do this,
mine sounds like a baby seal everytime I switch on the ignition after at
least 3-4hours break. Especially on colder days. Mine has also squawked
whike the engine is running, but not if I let it finish buzzing before I
start the motor.
If it really bothers you then get back to your dealer, but you may just get
the "they all do that, sir..." answer (which seems to be true in this case).

Regards,
Tim.
