Heavenly days Henry, you have had a tough go. Glad you're on the mend and hope it's rapid and complete.

 

Good to hear you are on the mend, too bad your first doctor wasn't as meticulous as you when it comes to tooling

 

Due to the dodgy link above I've had a dig around and found the correct link.

SKS modifikation set für alle Baujahre!, die funktioniert! aus Holland

There is a pic of the complete unit in the post avatar. Please excuse the translation as it is just cut n paste.



"I have the timing chain tensioner modification set that works!
Fits your own SKS. Cheaper and absolutely better than a new original SKS with chain guide and pins! So no chatter and pinion more and more durable than substitute a new sks. In fact, the engine is running better. Driving for many silent CBR1000F around in the Netherlands. My own CBR1000F has already been 25,000 km on it!
I have a lot of research into the noise of the chain tensioner CBR1000F done. Worldwide, many people have tried without success, the timing chain tensioner adapt by improving the bottom of the oil pressure spring. There is not the problem. The main problem is at the top. The articulating arm of the chain track has too much freedom. see Figure A and D. It is a scalene parallelogram! The lower oil pressure lever is impossible constructively put the entire circuit! At higher RPM, wil point D to the outside coming through the radial force. An error of Honda!
I have a simple but effective modification developed without damage of the SKS own! this takes the slack out of the top two joints A & D. And behold, a rigid and secure and error-free design. In fact, supports the new top spring of lower oil spring! No ambiguous sounds more and doing better timing since the chain attracts a little harder. More dan 40 owners have already taken place in Holland.
Today I make the modification in series to share with other CBR owners.
SKS modification kit will cost me € 125,00. Instructions and parcels to Germany. Only own SKS expand, fit my modifications and reset total and enjoy. The guide can also send an email.
I hope I the German CBR1000F lovers, like I do with my invention happy kan.
Below emails from people with the modification:
1 - I am to leave the next day and it's quiet at the bottom of the engine block. Great. Speed ​​remains calm. Thank you. And maybe someday down the street
2 - Start is really a relief. No rustling noise and other more. After 16 years CBR1000F Finally a quiet block. The choke can down very quickly. Driving and responding awarded.

You are joking right?

I think you're talking about the fuel tap!

 

Guys, I have one for sale - my manufacture, I will post to anyone in the world. The price is affordable, served me well but I said farewell to my girl and I took it out before the sale...

It is built around kawasaki ratchet tensioner, riveted with proper rivets, it was in the engine for 10k km, it works fine and solves the problems that you guys hate so much...

Hello

right now, in my country national exchange rate goes as follows...

1eu = 4.1pln -0,55% exchange charge
1gbp = 4.6pln -0,65% exchange charge

https://www.pkobp.pl/waluty/
400pln = 90gbp x 4.6 = 414-0,65% = sth like 410zl - that's it...



but remember in paypal it is still worse.... so you must calculate sth like 90gbp I believe...

+ delivery of course which is around 19gbp as far as I know... thank you...

PS.
I can send it as a letter - it is much cheaper but you cannot make a safe parcel...

but please PM..

thank you

 

I still have the tensioner.... I think that at 100EU it is a real bargain....

thank you!!!

 

Too expensive I think. Surely if you had it in use for 10k then it now owes you nothing. I would think the price should be nearer €50 but I am not interested anyway. Mine is still quiet.
