Starter Whirr/flutter

I’ve noticed (for some time, really) that after the engine starts the (presumably) starter motor continues for a second or two and makes a whirring/fluttering sound. Is that normal? I suspect it’s not fully disengaging, but the bike starts and runs fine and the noise has been there for quite a while and has not gotten any worse. Just strikes me as a bit odd.
