Silly noobs make me laugh. But to tell you the truth buddy yours is doing the exact same thing.. Mine did it too at 7k. Im at 11k now so its not a big deal besides annoyance. Im going to fix it this week tho..

I have this problem but have located it to be my fairings, at 3k and at 5k my front fairings when the front wheel is at actually rattles because it's loose. The previous owner put really ****ty aftermarket ones on and I think they cracked, there is duct tape around the area and after I took it off I found that it rattles. Maybe check that area, it's right where the RAM cover goes.
