Had my 1000km service done and a 16T front sprocket fitted. Very happy with the sprocket change the response has improved dramatically!!
Only one problem....The bike has developed a ticking sound coming from that area which is very noticable between 2000 - 4000 RMP Its not a vibration and the drive is very smooth.... I took it back to mechanic and he took it for a ride and advised that it may be the fact that the 1000km old chain and new sprocket have to 'wear in' together. Does this sound right? Has anyone else experienced this with their front sprocket change?
btw the sprocket was a genuine Yamaha one. Your comments/feedback would be appreciated.
Cheers,
