So can some1 please take a pic of the chain adjuster sticker on their swing arm. I know the adjusters has the lines on them to measure alignment but also has the sticker that says new chain/replace chain.

since i got my bike, i haven't replaced the chain and i dunno if the guy b4 he replaced it. I only put about 3-4 thousand miles on it and i know chains can last up to 20k. I want to get new sprockets but dunno if im gonna be wasting a good chain. my sprockets still have a lot of life in them. they are stock and far from worn. One thing i do know is that the dude b4 kept the bike out over winter outside. covered though on a patio

 

bump... anybody... i really want to see how long or how far down it goes on the f3 swingarm.. can some1 help

 

Ok, so I went out and took this photo tonight. It was dark in the garage so excuse the quality. I don't take much stock in how it lines up, I use it more for a reference. When I put this chain on last year, the adjuster didn't line up with the "New" position. I can't find the sticker available anywhere in Honda's parts listings so I can't get a new one. I just keep an eye on how the chain feels and looks, as well as the sprockets.

 

thank you so much... it also looks like u have the stock 43 teeth sprocket as well... it helps me out alot. Compared to my swing arm and chain, my chain is still relatively good. little slack, maybe a little more than an inch but like a inch and 1 or 2 couple CM. i think i might clean it up a bit and get new sprockets

thanks

 

IDoDirt, it must have been a Monday or Friday on the sticker production line.
Did not see the post until today & it certainly got me looking at my sticker. I never go by those type of things either, just as the adjuster marks are notoriously unreliable as well.
Anyway should you want to move it.



Even in the Bike manual, its out by a bit (more than a tad)

 

i still have 3 visible marks, the 4th one just gets cut off so i think i would be good for a while
