I was rather hoping that after a few hundred miles and an oil change the gearbox whine would reduce. Unfortunately this does not seem to be happening. Any other fellow 10r riders find this noise to be a bit of a pain?

No whine on mine, but earplugs probably help :)

Yah, there's a fair amount of gear whine.

i hear it as well , mainly when engine braking and when at really low rpm’s, such as when taking off from a light.

honda thought they had a problem with whining on the RCV211 until they found out it was only on Biaggi's bike, then they let Tamada out on the bike and noticed the whining sound was still in pitbox :wink:

aahahahhah!!! :lol: thats funny :D

From what I gather, you don't like Biaggi too much do you Burger? :lol:

I don't hear any whining on my bike. ________ Upskirt hidden (http://www.fucktube.com/categories/1119/hidden/videos/1)

No whining on mine either, but there is however some cheese noticed when ya grip it-n- rip it. BD

Wine and cheese huh? Yeah thats the California model. :wink:

Mine is a noisy biatch. Generator whine (almost sounds like a turbo) that is noticeable at lower engine speeds and a gear whine that is really pronounced at 65 to 70 mph. That was pretty funny, Bugerking. BTW Rossi and Biaggi were actually pretty cordial with each other after their epic MotoGP battle this weekend. But poor ol' Biaggi just does not have the personality style of V. Rossi. Those 2 riders were definitely the class of the field today, on the track.

Mmmmmm, there wasn't no skoolin going on today as those two had a great battle the entire race which either one could have won. BD

Mmmmmm, there wasn't no skoolin going on today as those two had a great battle the entire race which either one could have won. BD Right you are. No real schoolin', but I got caught up in the excitement. It was a great race; best I've seen in a while. And regardless of the outcome (intentionally vague; don't want to spoil), it was nice to see a MotoGP race that wasn't just another race for second behind Rossi.

Agreed, plenty of excitement. :D BD

Bk – that was cracker comment about biaggi :lol: :lol: Strangely enough, the wining noise has disappeared from my 10R ever since I removed the rear pegs and seat :? :wink:

I dumped the race to a DVD. Definately a keeper!

BD Thats what I would do if I were going through the trouble of getting the lowers painted. And what about the little piece below the seat? And about posting pics on the R1 forum before you post them here. :? :? :?

Hey BD, those second look skins actually look pretty nice! Yeah actually not bad at all.......nice little xtra i wasn't aware of that didn't cost anything. BD

If Rossi had a sack he'd have signed with Kawasaki (just kidding, sheesh, put down the weapon...:)

If Rossi had a sack he'd have signed with Kawasaki (just kidding, sheesh, put down the weapon...:) He should sign with Kwaka next year... nakano did pretty good in Qualifying... race :?: all is forgiven BD.. :D at least you've got a ZX10r

and the quicker pumkin color to boot. :lol: BD

I was rather hoping that after a few hundred miles and an oil change the gearbox whine would reduce. Unfortunately this does not seem to be happening. Any other fellow 10r riders find this noise to be a bit of a pain? My pumpkin is a whiney bitch too. It has to do with the straight-cut gears in the transmission and their clearances.

DAMN MAN:crackup::crackup:
