I have a 2002 1500 Drifter with approx. 13,500 miles. I have noticed a sound from the engine area that is in sync with the exhaust sound. Whenever I hit the clutch and the bike is rolling, no sound. The sound is only heard when the bike is being powered. If the clutch is engaged and the engine is reved I still hear the sound. It is almost a buzzing sound but as I said it is a muffled sound compared to the V & H long shots. I have checked for tail pipe leaks and found nothing. So far, the sound is all that is happening. No loss of power or shifting, etc. Any thoughts? (Almost sounds like a noisy valve train. Current engine oil life is 3500 miles.) Oil gauge shows plenty of oil.
