Is this sound normal? Front sprocket

[Paulius]

Also I wanted to ask how to correctly measure chain slack? As I read on this forum and there is many different opinions. Does someone have an example?

Doesn't sound like mine. Check your chain tension and ensure about 30mm of free-play as per the manual.

but how the 30mm is measured? Manual doesn't show how to measure it

Often described as waggle.

I personally go from touching the swing arm, to how far down I can pull the chain.

Do it when on the side stand.

That's not normal; sounds awful to me.
