So my bike has just (560miles) developed a buzzing noise. when the key goes from off to on, the relays and stuff click, fuel pump primes (and shuts off) but then this buzzing noise start. I waited for like minute, it didn't stop.
I drove down to my Suzuki dealer and ask the tech to take a look. He said, yeah.. I hear it but I wouldn't be concerned. It's normal stuff.
I talked to him for a bit asking why it would be normal. He said if it was abnormal, ECU would throw a code. Go ride.

I don't think it's normal.
I took two videos of it. The first one from the top, where I turn off ignition, noise goes away, turn it back on, and it starts up.
Second video is from below, on the right side of the engine. I turn on the ignition and you can hear the various startup clicks and then the noise very well.

I get the same buzzing sound. I think it's the fan on the factory LED headlights.

Best bet is to get some earplugs so you don't hear the regular little noises. If the noises get past your earplugs they are probably all right. If they get past your earplugs and are loud then you probably have an issue.

Hello

Its normal I questioned it when I first had mine

Another normal is its cold blooded when you first start bike , it soon sorts itself out but I leave mine to idle while I kit up and then runs good

Does the noise change when you move the throttle?

What's causing it and how is it Normal.
My bike didn't do this initially. It started around 600 miles. pretty much right after the first oil change.

I one had an asshole car dealer tell me the problem I was having was "typical of the class." Very funny.
