So just noticed today ridding to work a noise by bike is making. i was coming up to a stop sign and went to go into first but i didn't go down an hit neutral so i just let it coast to the stop but i noticed a grinding noise coming from my front when i was casting its not constant its kinda like a grind/rub. so ts like grind then stops grnd ten stops but its quick. so i kept ridding and t would do it when i pulled my clutch in as well and the harder listened i could hear it somewhat underneath the sound of the bike when i was on the gas. i don't thnk ts the brakes because when i get on the front brakes the noise stays the same if it was the brakes i would think the sound would change or go away when i pressed them. any ideas? thanks

 

Check to see if one of your rotors is warped first. Doesn't hurt to check that before you do anything else.

 

so when i got home i had my dad take a ook and rght when he got on it and coasted down the drveway wthout it runin could tell it was the chain i oiled t up and it went away now its back time for a new chain? or just keep t oiled up?

 

Probably going to wanna make sure it's adjusted properly. Make sure there's no real tight or loose spots in it. Theres a bunch of How-to's for that on here if you search. If goes out of adjustment every 150 miles or so or there's some major tight spots I'd say it's time for a new chain. Also make sure you're using a decent chain lube. I use spectra something or other from my local honda shop. It seems to be alright, it's real tacky but I get a lot of sling all over my undertail no matter how long I let it sit for after I do it. Someone else on here might have a better suggestion on what to use.
