Naa not a spanner.

It has started since the sup and b/l went in, so I have been over the whole set up a few times.

It's not the exhaust.

The noise is like a steal cable taping somthing, like a flag pole, gets worse as you put your foot down in gear. I can't see any cables, wires ect hiting the tail shaft ect.

I'm bigging to think its somthing broken!?! Axel? maybe....

Check your uni's to see if they an't at too extreme angle. Are your shocks fully extended ? could it be one tapping ?

Experience is something you don't get, until just after you need it.
