In that case it's most likely the sprocket. In any case you'll shortly need to change it to a steel sprocket or have the Supermax conversion.

Okay I will post here again. I am pretty sure this noise is coming from the front. I am going to guess that the tight corner (steering wheel nearly locked) at speed causes this noise due to either fender rubbing on tire or bearings giving up due to rust. I will let everyone know what I find. I think I can test for bearing by jacking up left front and seeing if there is play in the wheel.

If there is wear/play relating to your front wheel I suspect there may be no need to jack it up, just grab the top of the wheel and give it a good shake, if the bearing is worn you will likely hear a clunk, likewise if wear in wear in the suspension it too may clunk. For wear in the steering grab the front and rear of the wheel push on one hand while pulling with the other and reverse the process a few times..

Best of luck Craig..

If your tyre is rubbing you should be able to see a mark left on the rubber.
