I'm no genius but this can't be good. Anyone have any ideas? Again, this is after the bike is completely off, keys removed. Thanks for any information.

If I don't want to hear it I just loosen the gas cap and release the pressure, then retighten and go about my way...

I lost my cat a few days ago would you mind checking your pet carrier to see if she crawled in there? That may be the answer to your noise. 😳
