Saw on HD Forums that someone has a Triglide that he said the last 2 times he shut his trike off he heard a squeal that lasted about 2 seconds. One person asked if he parked on his cat. I posted..that is why they are called Hogs...was I wrong? Or bad..? BTW..there was no audio recorded for us to hear it.:xzqxz:
 
I saw the thread. Saw the Cat reply and thought it was funny although the OP didn't think so. I stayed out if it.

Knew it was cylinder pressure escaping through the intake valve while in exhaust stroke. You can hear it from the air cleaner if you put your ear to it. Sounds like letting the air out of a balloon when restricting the inlet.

It's not normal but... yes, it's normal for HD heads.
