Yes - they howled a fair bit. Having said that, it was the first set of tyres on the GS Rallye TE when I bought it new from the BMW dealership. I'm still only 18 months into riding so my experience is limited however if the A3's are making enough noise that you are unhappy then get rid and try something else. Don't twat about trying tp wear the A3's out - it will take you most of the summer unless you are touring.
Hi
Personally I find the Anakee's unbearably noisy and refused to have them on my new GSA. The dealers changed at no cost before delivery.
On my test ride of 1250 I knew that I was on Anakee's within a couple of minutes and couldn't wait to get off it.
I had them on my previous GS from new and went back after a couple of hundred miles and said I wanted them changed. It wasn't an issue.
However others on here swear by them so it would be reasonable to suppose that some riders have ears that pick it up and others not so.
If it bothers you I would go back to the dealers and ask to change. This is a well known issue and while they'll pretend that it's the first time someone has mentioned it - it isn't.
Either way I would dump them asap - it's not worth the annoyance for the next few thousand miles! Move on to something else and enjoy your new bike.
Cheers
