Default NOISEY SCOOB.

I HAVE A CLASSIC FACELIFT SPORT. I'VE HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 YEARS NOW AND SO FAR NO PROBLEMS. THE ONLY THING THAT BUGS ME IS THAT IT'S A BIT NOISEY. THE ENGINE RATTLES WHEN I START IT UP BEFORE QUIETENING DOWN AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES. I ALSO HAVE A HUMMING OR A WHIRRING NOISE COMING FROM THE BACK, I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE THE WHEEL BEARINGS GOING BUT I'M NOT SURE.
