I took out my 9sx sunday and the engine is making a whine. It does it in all gears and when stopped so I dont think it is the tranny. Alt. maybe? or something in the primary? I thought i would ask you guys.

Could be the fan on the rear cylinder couldnt it. I mean, i dont know about on the bike, but i build computers and I can tell you that when the bearing in the fans are going out they start to whine pretty bad.. just a guess
