Is it a whine? My old V-star used to have the same whine as my 6R. A mechanic told me once that most Yamahas whine because of the way they cut the gears in the transmission. Nothing to be concerned about, apparently.Yeah, I'm Posting in this thread... alot of good information in here, but I've run into an interesting situation that has me stumped:
I cleaned my chain for the first time today, as the rear sprocket was making alot of noise. After cleaning and lubing the chain, I take the bike for a spin, and immediately notice the rear sprocket is super quiet. (yay)
However, after about 10-15 minutes, I notice the front sprocket is making alot of noise. The tinny high-pitched chain noise only comes up when I'm using throttle. When I'm coasting, engine breaking, or using the clutch, I don't hear a thing.
Any Ideas? I'm certain I used ample amounts of lubricant wax....
