Ive been noticing a whining noise in the engine of my 04 230 when I put it in gear and start to take off. This is my first CFR is this normal? I dont notice it after I get going.
Thanks

well to answer your question about your "cfr" i wouldnt know anything about those bike, but if i was a crf then i would say that its not normal to have any whining noise.

First, welcome to the site.

Second, noise problems are hard to troubleshoot over the net, but I doubt there is any real problem. Just make sure you have plenty of oil.

You, of all people, picking on someone for an obvious typo, now that just takes the cake. :roll:

Is it making the noise as you're letting the clutch out?

I took it to the Honda shop today and they said there wasnt a problem. That some of the bikes make that noise and some didnt. They said it was the trany being engaged. Its when I first let out on the clutch and start moving. Its not a bad noise I just wanted to make sure it wasnt leading to a problem.
Thanks for the comments and dont worry about the comments. Im on some other forums and they all have that type.
