Strange engine noise at 3000rpm

  1. Hi there

    So.. I have a Streetfighter 848 for about 2 weeks now. In the last week I started noticing a strange Hissing/rattling noise coming from the left side of the engine. I am not sure if it was there before and I just did not pick up on it or if it is something new. It sounds like air is escaping.. or a thin metal bit is vibrating.. and it seems to be there in any gear at almost exactly 3000 rpm in any gear.

    I had my friend listening whilst I get the bike to speed and it sounds like it is coming from the pipe marked in the image.

    I will try to get the sound recorded later on if it helps.

    Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Thank you
