I changed out my rear tire and since then I have a swooshing sound that is not the chain or tire rubbing on anything.  I think my chain tightend up on the first ride post tire change.  I reset the chain but then the sound started.  The tire is tracking straight and wearing correct.  What have I missed?  Did I damage the front gear on the transmission? 

Any assist would be appreciated!

Thanks!

try taking a tape measure and measuring from the center of the swing arm pivot bolt to the center of the axle. measure both sides and make sure the numbers are the same. could be slightly off making the noise. and make sure you have i believe an inch of play in the chain

Yeah try to repack your rear bearings. Ayres could be onto something they may need to be replaced.
