Yesterday afternoon I installed a 44T 530 Rear Afam sprocket on my 2008 FZ6. I took it out for a ride and really liked how the bike performed, I did noticed a wired noise which I thought was the chain. This morning riding to work I noticed the noise again and noticed the noise on the ride home. I thought maybe my chain was either misaligned or loose so I spent some time realigning the chain and tightening it up. Took the FZ6 out for a ride this evening and the noise still persisted and this time I believe the noise was not coming from my chain but possibly the engine. My 08 has 1400 miles on it so the chain is fairly new. I ended up ripping the bike apart and putting the stock 46T sprocket back on. The Terrible noise I was hearing is now gone.
Has anyone else tried 16/44 setup and if so have you noticed a weird chain or engine noise. Usually I could hear it best when vehicles were beside me. So my mod for trying to get a extra 2 or 3 mpg is shot to 8hit.
