Does anyone else have a zzz chain that's noisy? Is it normal for them to be noisy?
Every since I've put it on this kind of humming / buzzing noise I can't get rid of.
Everything is adjusted properly and well lubed.

What did you install for new sprockets?

I forget what the brand is, but they are 18 and 45. Which steel sprockets do you recommend?

Any aftermarket sprockets are going to be more noisy than Oem period!.
If the sprocket does not have the rubber cushen on it in the front the louder it will be!

Yup, new sprockets are louder and he's right about the cushion (cushen?).
