Is the nut that holds your front sprocket on still tight?

What sort of noise is it?, a rattle, or a grinding noise?

Sounds like standard Honda dirt bike from your description. Does it looked like the pic I've attached? The sprocket is not bolted on tight, it is held on the shaft by that plate (woser as you call it) which is fitted over the splined shaft and turned half a spline at the point where the shaft is machined so that the plate can be rotated. In that position the two screws can then be fastened through the plate into the sprocket holding it in place but leaving the sprocket floating. Therefore it is meant to be a little bit loose and all the ones I've owned I would never had called noisy because of this.

They work fine and are a masterpiece when it comes to changing sprockets in a hurry, unlike bikes with a large nut and tab washer like my WR has - total pain to change the sprocket whereas on my Hondas I could regularly change sprocket sizes at will.

So in summary if I think it is what you are saying you have nothing to worry about.
