Rear Stand my 04-f4I and took off the rear tire. Went to get a new tire mount and balanced. Came back greased axle and placed everything back on, clicks on tension lined up. Went for a test run....

Heard a Clicking noise from the chain when it rotates.

Put it back on rear lift. Then on neutral, I rotated the rear tire.
Clicking seems to be coming from the front sprocket. but
It'll only click when i pass that one specific link around the front sprocket and it'll feel really stiff passing through...

what could possibly the problem? have not sprayed my chain with lube yet. could that be the problem?

 

How old is your chain?
Is the tension set correctly?
Have you never lubed the chain at all? They need to be kept well lubed, usually every 500 miles or so.

without knowing the above, Im going to guess and say your master link may be too tight. If its the master link that is clicking, it may be the problem.

the reason you only hear in around the front sprocket is because it has to bend so much more to make it around the smaller diameter. the rear sprocket is large enough that the link doesn't bind as much.

 

Before the tire removal, it was fine and did not click.
Chain is new and the rear sprocket is new....
No I have to lubed the chain in a while... it's been like 1200 miles.
plus here in texas with 98 degrees plus.
I'll have to check the master then.

 

plus tension is set correctly. same amount of clicks both sides.

 

I would loosen the chain all the way, and roll the rear tire and watch the chain as it rolls with slack in it. You will see the bad link, as it will not be level with the other links. If you find it is the master link, try bending it by hand. It should bend easy. If it doesnt, its been set too tight. This can be a huge problem down the road. In all honesty. If I had a tight master link, I would remove it and install a new one. If the master link is too tight, the rollers won't work like they are suppose to, and instead of rolling into place on the sprocket, they slide into place. This can create premature wear on the roller, and on the sprocket. I don't know of anyway to loosen a master link once its been riveted into place. Your only option is to replace it.

Did a shop replace your chain? if so, and it is the master link, have them replace it. they shouldn't have any problems doing so if they screwed up. Don't let them tell you it will work its way in. They need to do the job correctly.
