I got a new FC350 and it's on 10hours and since the last 2 motos there was a strange whistle noise coming from the water pump side .... is this kind of normal engine sound for 350 or the water pump or clutch ....
This is my first Husky , I've been riding yamahas only

My 2016 300te has a whistle also. It seams to stop when the clutch is engaged and whistles when in gear

Yeah, kind of the same thing here. When is on gear and start shifting up it sounds little like I got turbo on the bike. When I go down shifting kind of sounds like you let go the throttle of an electrical pit bike or something like that ..... I hope it won't brake ... its on 10 hours riding. Put FMF RCT full exhaust and ride it with 50/50 race gas

my 16 fc250 used to whistle to but i just thought it was due to the airbox design being so sealed.

Hello.

In my experience, this is the only noise you do want to hear. In my case it means that engine is OK. I have 2016 250sxf. (2 time engine repair)

I had a 2014 TC 250 2stroke, and it to had that turbo sound as well, i think it is the airbox design, from the mid range all the way to top end, bike was brand new, never had a single issue...but it sure had a slight turbo whine......was kinda cool

It is defiantly kind of weird to hear this noice , but you are right, it is turbo charged !!!
I took it today to one of our mechanic shop TZR Racing and they said it looks totally fine. They told me they heard many other bikes with the same sound and its just what it is. Also said that this is the best KTM/Husqvarna engine in the last 5 years. Hopefully I won't be the first one with engine failure !!!
