when rideing my bike around , and when i stop sometimes i smell weird smells from the bike. almost like rubber but not really.

does anyone else get odd smells? maybe i am just paranoid.

 

I can't really say that I ever smelled anything unusual. That's a new one on me. Sorry.

havent smelled anything out of the ordinary but sometimes i hear weired sounds from my bike.

 

Check all the clearances on the tires to see if anything is rubbing, check for leaking oil or anything like that.

 

Check your pants...these bikes tend to scare the **** outta ya.....may be ur ***!! lol

 

i have the same problem.. i think/hope mine is comming from road grime in the front part of the fairing, being heated up by the header.. but i'm not sure.. i tried spraying it out with a hose but i really need to get in there.

I've seen smoke come from that area too but i think what ever it was is about burned away now since i dont see smoke or really smell it anymore.

 

i have been driving thru a contruction area alot lately cause there working on one of the main roads here.. maybe its **** kicked onto the headers.

 

I think you're right. I get that smell sometimes, in my case it's a little oil on the headers. Has anyone noticed the cool thing about titanium headers...? They are hot as hell with the engine running, but are cool to the touch like 3 minutes after shutdown. Titanium really sheds the heat.

 

cant say that i have ever touched my headers[>:]

 

Be careful to, this could also be a warning that the Battery is overloading and getting to great of a charge. I had a CBR 600 that did that to me 3 times till I figured out what was going on.
