Chain Noise

[bronc3]

I know it is near impossible to describe a noise here,but I feel the chain on my Busa is kinda loud.Took it to my dealer at 600 miles and they told me it was normal.I now have 3700 miles on it and all I can say is it hasn't gotten worse.It doesn't run you off the bike,but it is a noticble hiss,even wearing a helmet.Another thing that seems odd about it is that when i lube it,it gets louder until some of the wax gets flung off.My XT550 is the opposite-when it starts raising cain,I know it's getting dry.The chain on the Busa is adjusted according to specs and lubed with Suzuki chain lube.

check the alignment of the rear tire... might be tweaked, making the chain stressed. Any uneven wear on the sprocket?

Nope,wearing fine.Noise seems to be in the countersprocket end.Hasn't required much adjustment at all.
