Hi All!
I have a new-to-me 2020 R1250RT with 18K that makes metalic ringing tone under strong acceleration. It is most noticeable in first with no wind noise. The sound doesn't change with speed, it only gets louder the more load I add. Cold or hot. It reminds me of an old school telephone or a loose heat shield on a car. It does not make the noise under revving the engine at a stop. Everything on the bike seems to be fine. It rides well etc. I have only owned R1200RT's so I am not familiar with the changes in the 1250.
Any thoughts on diagnosing this one?
<<< Edit: I found it. This is the sound. https://youtu.be/9F02kbYepwI
Thanks in advance!
