Had to go to work on Sunday so when i got home and the chain was still warm i gave it a good spraying of Wurth chain lube to see if it makes any difference to the noise.
Lo and behold, on the way to work this morning the noise has reduced by as much as 70% i reckon.
I can still hear it a little bit but metal on metal is never gonna be silent, and because of how much quieter it is i probably never even noticed it before.
So at least it’s not actually a problem as such, just a bit annoying to hear, but it would seem the engine oil just free’s up every link so much that the chain plays a different tune to what i’ve always been used to.

More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
