Locate a dry bearing for me

[friskycutter]

After letting my bike sit for a couple of weeks, first ride out while doing the first deceleration on compression I heard a dry bearing somewhere. Seemed to be related to speed rather than RPM. Only heard it the one time but would like to track it down early, any ideas? 22k's on the bike if that helps

 

P.S. I luuuuve my bike. I might own another bike one day but Ill still own this one. Know of any mod's I can do so I can acually have sex with my bike?

Try the wheel bearings. You could also check to see if they made the noise!

Don't even try it.. it hurts a lot !!!

 

I was once coming up to a red light, braking pretty hard when at the same time I hit a bump that was big enough it lifted my butt off the seat... With the loss of friction between butt and seat, I slammed head first (so to speak) into the back of the gas tank.. It was painful.
