300/440/550 550SX or 40hp Shopvac?

I picked up a 550SX when I purchased my superjet and recently I was out riding it and it is insanely loud! It seriously disturbs me with how loud it is, not the exhaust either. Its got to be motor or drive train and its not impeller rattling or anything. It sounds like a shopvac is on full bore. Not sure if its a bad bearing somewhere or what, anyone had their 550 sound like a pissed off shopvac before? Lol.

My guess would be a bad bearing somewhere
