Strange noise in low rpm (solved)

Hi guys,

since today my vmax 1200 '97 speaks some strange noise on low rpm (900-1100).
First squeaking noise comes out between front and right cylinders under the carbs.When I add some throttle noise goes away.

Similar kind of noise also on low rpm comes from front right carb. Not sure what can produce that sound in carb?!?!

Any hint what to check and look for?
Oil level is ok.

If you can capture it on a video and post it to youtube or a file sharing website, and it's audible, you might have a better chance of identifying it.

Strange thing is that now carb sound is gone and this sound started to show up like 30-40 seconds after i started vmax.

If pull clutch in is it still there?

Yes sound is still there.
Pulling clutch makes no difference.

Check to see if your carbs are seated properly.

Fixed!
Two screws that hold rubber hose between two right carbs were the problem.
Tightened that up and noise is gone!!!!!

On the road again!!
Thank you mate!!!!!
