Actually, what I meant is that perhaps I should switch to a different weight oil (since mine is heavier than what people are using it might explain the noise). Synthetic, blend, and regular organic oils with the same ratings should perform to the same specifications, so I can't imagine why a synthetic would make the bike noisier. If anything, my understanding is that fully organic oils break down more quickly and thus I would expect the bike to get noisier over time while using them. Thoughts from anyone else (bump)?
Update: I picked up some semi-synthetic Castrol 75W-90 gear oil yesterday and put it in, and it made a big difference with the noise.
