sorry if this has been asked many times before ... Can someone tell me why my gas tank sings a solitary high note when I ride ?.. this high pitched eeeeeeeee goes on for a few minutes even after I have stopped. Is there anyone who has heard this before ? .. Is it pressure being released ? ... can i stop it ? thanks for any info barnaby.
