I saw mine like that 3 weeks ago. The nut that holds the Cush drive to the crank shaft backed out causing a lot of noise. Had to truck it back from Sacramento and the dealer quickly fixed it. Went to Laughlin river motorcycle run. All better and had a great time. Over 2000 miles on it now. Back to the dealer for oil change etc. this week. Bevel drive is quite at 70 mph but is still loud at 60 and 80
