Whistling Honda VLX600

I own a VLX600 Deluxe. When driving at higher speeds (45+) I hear a "whistling" sound from the front of the bike. I thought it was either the fork bag or the windshield causing the sound. I removed both and took the bike back out and the whistling still happens.

Has anyone had this experience? What could be causing this problem?

Can anyone help?

Thanks!

Only thing I can think of are the deer whistles.

whats a fork bag?

Other than that I have never had a whistling sound on my VLX so I cant help you. Although it could be the radiator fan???

The VLX 600 I just bought for my Wife does the same thing. When I hit 50 mph the bike starts whistling.

interesting. I seriously dont know what it could be because I dont hear whistling on mine. You guys dont happen to use half helmets do you?

Might be carburetor.
