Please help weird noise in my "new" VT

[Miss L]

hey guys hoping someone can help me....I am the proud owner for 4 days of my gorgeous VT Series I all going well until today. I parked on some grass and then when I was driving I am getting a noise in my front right wheel (I think) or engine bay that I can only describe as sounding like a HQ on the start line...its superloud....doesnt appear to have any degradation to the engine performance...goes away when I brake and when I am driving on a windy road to the right....I am beside myself as I am so hoping its nothing..have checked nothing loose in engine bay, nothing caught under the car....it got a clean bill of health before I bought it and I just love "him" to bits...any clues before I go snot the car dealer ???

Hey there so what kind of noise we looking at squelling noise,scraping, howling never owned a hq so wouldn't know ,did you buy it privately or dealership ,only thing i can think of its wheel hub ,wheel alignment or not the plastic shroud loose unless we know what type of noise hard to diagnose.

well thats sorted how embarrassed am i.....someone has tried to flog my wheels and hello only having 2 wheels nuts is apparently not a good thing !! why or why didnt i look for the obvious ?? funniest thing tho was i parked it at the police academy and all was fine then whattaya know some are missing !! very funny and thanks for the suggestions.....so appreciate it....best i go file my nails or some other activity coz clearly i have failed in cars 101 (oh yeah the scary thing...i pit crew on a HQ and change the wheels all the time...hello wheel nuts)

I'd be having a very close look at the wheel studs, wheel bearing and the mag itself for any damage. As long as those two were done up tight it should be OK, but just to be sure.

dont stress to much,its often the simple things that we think of last. just be very thank full the wheel didnt come off on one of those windy roads. i have had that happen to a rear wheel once,it was kinda funny watching this wheel roll past me wondering where that came from before the rear of the car went a bit funny,lol
