-1 front sprocket = chain whine?
I installed -1 tooth front sprocket and now when holding at steady throttle (cruissing along) I get a whine. I figure it is the chain , but why? I noticed the factory sprocket has a rubber piece on both sides of the sprocket and the new one is just steel.I have tried loosening and tightening the chain with no effect.

RE: -1 front sprocket = chain whine?
the rubber grommet doesn't cause any sound when removed (although that is what it is there for)..i went -1 in the front and i don't have a whine at all....when you changed out the sprocket...you change out the chain?
what pitch did you stay with?
a little more info on the swap might help...
