Default shee question?

my banshee has a girring noise on the chain side. it sounds like it's a chain ruller grinding, but i don't know if it is good or bad. the bike is still ver new, but i thought the noise would stop after a while but it hasn't. did anyone else experience this?? what should i do?

Default shee question?

Most likley what you are hearing is the chain rubbing its bottom side against the chain roller. Its not a bad noise. Mine does it alot too. Its touching somewhere on one of the teflon/plastic rollers or guides. It could possibly be out of alignment or too loose. Banshee rear ends are notorious for getting loose fast. Check all the bolts that are connected to your swingarm and connected to the chain tensioners.

OR

A bolt may be loose resulting in too much or not enough tension in the chain. Mine came loose once and the chain was soo tight I could barley move it. I was doing a drop to a lander and hitting the rear brakes to stop. The rear end came loose and was pulled backwards so far that the chain had super high tension, im suprised it didnt snap. In the air, it made a weird noise, like the wheel was rubbing against something...
