My freemotion recumbent bike makes a grindy buzzy noise when plugged in and the panel doesn't light up. ?
It was left plugged in over night. Next morning it was making a loudish buzzy noise. Unplugged and it quit. Plugged back in and had the same noise. The information panel doesn't light up or anything.

Made in China. Cheap transformers and electrical clutches. Trace the hum, disassemble, replace humming unit with padding underneath. A piece of card or felt will suffice.
There are a few things that could cause the noise. first, check your axle. Make sure it is properly lubed and greased. Check for a worn/bent axle. Sometimes there is damage and you don't realize it. Next, check your front brakes. As you turn left, the inside pad could be dropping onto the disk causing noise. It does not effect performance, just annoying. Last, check your tire wear. If you have a new tire, it could be an uneven tread pattern causing the noise. However, an old tire could have developed a "flat" spot over time just from simply parking the bike. The kickstand is on the side where you are hearing the noise when you turn. Good luck.
Recumbent bike works best for elderly people with back and hip problems
because of the relaxed position and the angle that put's less pressure on those
areas. Upright exercise bike works on more areas than the recumbent bikes
including the lower abdominal muscles.
get the dealer to sort this out as taking it apart yourself could invalidate the warranty. its classed as third party interferance, and as you are not a kawasaki mechanic they could wash their hands of the warranty.
Check the tightness of the crank bearings, also the crank fastening nuts (on axle) If its the gears you may have to turn the screws on the rear derailleur to adjust the tracking. The same as the front. Your question is kind of vague so its hard to pinpoint the clicking noise. Could even be a stone in the tire??lol
Sorry just saw your request, you'll have take the side panels off and look for read power on the frame this is a indication that the bearings on either flywheel or pulley assembly are destroyed depending on what you paid for you may want to get rid of it if you haven't already.
