It is not really clear how audible simple harmonic distortion from motor non-linearity would be. Much of it will be masked as it is generally of a low harmonic order.
I think an interesting experiment is to have a speaker in the free field (so outdoors would work) playing music and then suddenly cutting off the signal and measuring how long it takes sound to stop emanating from the speaker and at what level. This could give an idea as to the residual "self noise" the speaker is creating under the main signal.
