 |
|
Have a 93 RS with a weird noise...at idle, is has started to hiss--sounds like something pressurized is leaking. No liquids anywhere, doesn't seem to effect performance at all....I am thinking fuel lines somewhere but not sure. Has 21000 miles on the bike. Any ideas appreciated!
Thanks and HNY!

Sure it's not the fuel pump? It makes a pretty weird hissing noise...when I got my bike I swore it had a vacuum leak.

I suggest it might also be the fuel filter. Replacing mine stopped a hissing-like sound.
