Good morning,
I searched the posts and found one other person who had mentioned this issue, so I'm putting it out there to see if anyone else has experienced this issue: When I shut off the bike this morning and turned the key off, the windshield auto-retracted as usual, however it made kind of a groaning noise and shook a bit. I thought I was hearing things since my earplugs were still in, so turned the ignition back on, raised the shield (silently) and then turned the ignition off; the windshield retracted with a clearly audible kind of groan, and looked like it was shaking/stuttering. I did clean the shield this morning, but was not excessively vigorous with the rubbing...
This is a 'new' 2008 that I've had for 3 weeks. Yes, it is still under warranty, and if it gets worse, I'll take it in, but riding season is just kicking off and if there is something I can check or lube or adjust myself, all the better (I really dislike dealerships, but that's a topic for another thread).
Thanks for taking the time to read through this post. I appreciate any/all feedback.
