Popped round to local garage

Had bike up on stands & also took for ride

Agreed sound coming from front wheel , thought it was a bearing / speedo sender

Gonna drop bike in on Monday as got day off hopefullt just wheel bearings as apparently speedo sender is quite expensive ?

The noise is back Argghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

front & rear wheel bearings have been changed so not that

Chain & sprockets have been cleaned & lubed &checked for tight spots fine

Brakes stripped cleaned & new pads fine

The only thing I can think it can be is the speedo drive as sound is def coming from front

Checked oil level fine

Can't believe it would make so much noise that I can hear the scream over speeds of over 40 mph to about 75 mph ???

Cheers Steveg
