Ballade TCT's have been prone to similar problems, and ive seen both comments on s2ki; as well as facebook.
What bugs me is that they would say " the sound is not something they have heard related to a TCT"
They have had complaints since the origin of their TCT's.
Return it for a refund.

But, I've been around motorcycles for a long time. And the timbre or quality of your chain whine sounds tight, to me --- the sound as the engine decelerates. Esp, on second video. Real tight. Not even close. I'd replace the tensioner, before any more driving.
Sorry.

It's kinda hard to judge sounds off computer or cellphone audio. I was listening to it with Sony cans (pretty good quality).

Probably because Ballade has a local presence and shop in Southern California. No shops with anything regarding the S2000 in my area.
I noted Billman spotted the problem without referring to his own TCT. (Other than in his signature block which is in all his posts.) I have his TCT. Recommend the OP get one as well.

Good luck getting the right refund from Ballade. Heard good things via forums so I thought they were reputable. I went through the process of shipping it back unused, and they totally jacked my refund. I tried calling and emailing them and they're absolutely unresponsive. Quick to tell me they're out of ano blue and send me an aluminium, TCT and take my money, but they do not back their product or policy. Trying to get it back through my credit card company...
