Default SV650S whistling noise.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCc-GJb81Cw

follow the link above to hear the noise im talking about, its pretty clear.
i have been to varies mechanics and they think its aerodinamic. not the bike engine, the noise still happens when clutch is pulled in and even when bike is turned off while its happening, it makes the noise from around 50mph - 90mph
any suggestions for what it could be will be very helpful as its very annoying me and its making me wanna get rid of my bike!

PLEASE GOD HELP ME FIX THIS!

Its the same noise as my mini made when a bearing was shot and at speed it used to rotate the whole bearing in the flange

I might have a similar problem (the noise is similar and quite audible at speed, with quite a 'chirp').

So which bearings do I need to check - wheels? I was worried it was engine related.

I have a 2005 pointy 'N'!
