New squeal
 
So, I had the front tyre changed yesterday. In addition, the speedo sensor had to be changed as the old one was in lots of bits. Anyway, it all got sorted out but I notice that there is a brand new squeal...from the front wheel I think.

It does it around 30 or over intermittently and sounds like what it would sound like if there was a strong wind blowing across your open visor.

It's not coming from my helmet (ooer - I have a nurse for that!:smt081)

I'm certain it's from the front.

Everything 'seems' to be normal and tight. It is not the brakes.

My concern is if I leave it in the hope that it goes away, it could be a problem that produces heat and then metal expands and then the front wheel locks and then I die.

Got any ideas what it might be anyone?

I guess I'll be taking it back to the fitter next week.

I vaguely recall mine did that when the speedo drive tabs weren't seated in their slots.
