Ebgine noise

#1 Unread post by Bubba »

Posted on the general forum so I thought I'd try here too.

Bought a new Yamaha Midnight Silverado last year. Great cruiser with one complaint. Engine noise.
Question: Is this normal for the bike? I get a 'twittering' sound around 55 mph or whenever the rpm is in that range. Also get what sounds like piston slap upon acceleration.
Has anyone else had this problem?
