Adjusting Drive Chain?
Pulled both wheels this morning, was going to mount new tires myself but had no luck finding tire irons. Gave up and took them to a tire shop. They had the both tires mounted in less than 10 minutes for $30 and did an awesome job! Worked for me.
I have the back tire on but don't see any specs in the service manual on drive chain tension. It's entirely possible that I've overlooked it. :icon_doh: I'm thinking about 1 1/2" of play? Help me Obi-wan Kenobi. You're my only hope. |
3/4" play, Dao.

You're quite welcome!
Another thing... If you don't have an owner's manual, here is a link to one in PDF. Factory Owner's Manual The spec for chain freeplay is on page 72 of the manual (pg 76 of the PDF) :) |
DOH!! I have it but only looked at the service manual! :icon_doh:
Thanks again |
Remember to spin your wheel and adjust it at the tightest spot Mr Jones ...

morning ... and ..om outta here to work now ... :icon_bike: |
Good morning to you Mr. CBRClassic and thanks for the advice! Don't work too hard today.
Thanks to you too Mr. Trout! I think I've got it under control now. Putting away the tools and going for a little ride. If the chain doesn't break or jump the sprocket, or the wheels fall off, or the brakes fail I'll be in good shape. :icon_wink: If any of that happens, my insurance is paid up and I could use a vacation anyway. :icon_teeth: |
Just remember, a vacation with a set of handlebars stuck up your fanny, isn't much of a vacation. :D
|
Enjoy the ride, Dao!
