Can't wait to hear what it is.  My production date is Sept 2011 - can't imagine mine is okay.  If it is motor related - should not come as a huge surprise - that is basically the one thing they did not fool with. Just the other day I noticed that the rear wheel bearings are making a racket - have not had the chance to remove the rear wheel and take a look.  I have read here that it could be a seal - but I'm not so sure a seal in itself could make such noise.  So I may have several reasons not to ride my bike. I have owned it since Feb and have not really had the chance to ride it - only has 200 miles on it.  Looks like I'm about to ride it even less. Mine started out tough - right from the purchase - I never took delivery the ECM had to be replaced. It is situations like this that makes me so happy that I'm fortunate to own several bikes.  Good chance I can keep one of them running.
