Strange Noise from rear when turning

[hiflyer]

One more thing to check, make sure lug nuts are tight.

BIGLRY,

I haven't tried tapping the rear break when it's happening but I will try it when I go out in a few. Best description would be a rubbing noise..

Put your bike on its center stand and place the trans in neutral. Get down and spin the rear tire by hand and observe and listen for any brake pad to rotor drag. Whenever I check my rear tire pressure I notice the intermitent rubbing noise as I rotate the tire

Thanks BIGLRY
I will try that and report back in a few...

The rim hasn't been off the bike yet but I DO remember reading somewhere about a lug sheering off.. That's now on the to do list for this evening also..

Thanks Hiflyer..

The pads dragging on the rotor I'm aware of but this is when I'm corrning i really notice the sound..

BIGLRY,
I tried what you said as far as tapping the rear break and it didn't do anything about the noise I'm hearing, when I get home this evening I'm going to check the lugs and report back..

Thank you all for the continued assistance...

Over thinking again? Tire psi at 42 front & rear? Tire noise would be normal at 7,000 miles. Center is warn more than sides. When turning you are using tire blocking that has uneven ware. AKA, grumbly rumbly tires. More so if you have run under inflated tires, read oem recommended psi.

Max psi on my tires is 41. I wouldn't go over that.

Oh the sound is from the chicken stripes?
