My 2020.DSR. 500 miles. Bad bearings? Video attached.

So I adjusted my belt today. Was at about 55 and I brought it down to 35.

I've noticed my ride getting louder, and I thought .maybe the tension was increasing on the belt or something.

Well. Now I think it's my motor bearings starting to go, or are already gone.

Thoughts?

I'm not able to say confidently that I am hearing the bearing of the motor. Could also be the bearing of the wheel?

 :o does it make that noise without any belt, or is it only when under tension?
