Ohhh yeah. Like i said, it drove me absolutely nuts, i tried hunting down everything. Started freaking out thinking my secondary bevel gears were dying or mis lashed or something. I tossed it up on the centerstand one day, and ran it thru the gears while OFF the bike (had a friend on the brake just in case) and started listening, cos ON the bike, at speed, i could never tell exactly where the noise and buzz what eminating from. I found the whine instantly when i was off of it. Just KNOWING that its not nearly as detremental as i thought it was takes a load off my mind. I want to learn to split the cases, but not on my daily rider! Im not saying im positive this is your situation, but its worth a check for sure. -
Only because all the time I am enjoying my vibro-massage equipped 750/1000 in all it's beautiful GSness going down the road at a high rate of speed, I am picturing where I will end up when the whole works seizes up, the rear wheel locks, my new Avon gets a flat spot and so does my head.
It's a long ways down from the side of some of these roads around here.
Besides, this bike is much too pretty to dump.Comment

Pulling the stator cover will give you a chance to check the stator as well as the starter clutch. No personal experience but some people have reported stators coming loose.
One other thing to check is crank twisting. I "think" you can pull the plugs and check the piston position in pairs with some sort of measuring device down the hole (calipers maybe?). Long shot but maybe...Ed
To measure is to know.
