Hi guys (gals, are there any on here? 
) I have just bought a 2014 MT09 with just under 2000 miles recorded, bike runs absolutely fine with no issues. However, on starting from cold, there is a rather annoying loud squeal that comes from the right side of the engine, around where the clutch is?. Once the engine is warm it completely disappears. ? I have searched this forum but cannot find any similar or linked threads to the noise. I have done an internet search and found an American MT09 forum where a person with the same bike had exactly the same noise, there was no response to his query, to which he did not seem that worried about it just continued to ride it. As its a new acquisition for myself, I am a little worried about it, could anyone kindly shed any light on this annoying squeal? Many thanks in advance. Off for a beer now, after stuffing another choc egg .....
Apologies if I am in the wrong section.......
