DID timing chain dealer distributor for CBR1000F
I looked at a 95' Hurricane today and need to know how much the chain job would cost since the bike has about 26k miles. It didn't sound like it was ticking when he idled it, but then again the owner probably warmed her up before I got there. If I test drive it tomorrow, can I excite the timing chain somehow so I can hear if its going? 9500 RPMs do it? It would really help me make the decision on an offer that includes the timing chain replacement cost.
DID masterlink style timing chain cost $?
-Also, who sells these things for this bike? I must suck at google searching...
mrcycles.com Chain Tensioner $111
mrcycles.com Guides A & B $85
What did I miss?
Thanks in advance Gents,

You missed nothing, except maybe a tappet cover gasket and sealant..............
9500 RPM will def NOT do it - they only make a noise at low revs and for about 2 miles !
DID camchains come with their own masterlink. It's a 150 link chain, available over the counter here. I can send you one for about 80 US INCL postage !
Make sure you get the "modified" tensioner which has a longer piston. They are about the same price from Wemoto as you've been quoted. The camchain job's worth around $400 incl labour, maybe more.

Make sure the tensioner is included in the chain replacement
With those low miles she may not quite need a replacement yet , but if its included , you may as well do it..
Pete is in the ball park with $400ish but we have heard horror stories about much higher quotes?
Here in Aus, around $600-$700 is common (which is around the $450 US)
How much is your 95 selling for all up then ?
BTW- I would not free rev (standing still) a ride to 9500 RPMs to check anything
