Might help to have a younger person ride the machine or with you that can try to locate what area is making the noise while you concentrate on driving.Plus a load on the machine such as another rider may reduce the noise or increase it. Wouldn't help none if I was there as I have tinnitus,a constant buzzing and ringing in my ears..
