SV650AL7 chain and sprockets kit
Hi everyone,
I managed somehow to wear chain/sprockets after 1 year and a half and 5k miles lubing it regularly. ( I guess it may have been because the rear wheel was unaligned, any other guess is welcome! ) I am struggling to find a new kit of chain/front and rear sprocket for the 2016-2017 model. Anyone can suggest a site/model to look for on eBay/Amazon? Most sites don't find it by putting make/model/year but I presume it may be compatible with existing parts and they just haven't updated their dbs. Thank you. |
Re: SV650AL7 chain and sprockets kit
I dont know if it takes the same kit as older models but how did that happen? Did you buy it new and have you ever tampered with the rear wheel or chain adjustment? If it was correctly set up originally and kept lubed it should not have needed to be disturbed yet. If that is the case Id take it back to the dealer because the chain may have been set up too tight from new. Further damage to the gearbox output shaft bearing can then happen.

I have also found a kit from AFAM (K4972) and it looks quite cheap £80-110 (depending on they type of chain) they are QX-rings. Any thoughts on those? https://afam.com/en/service-2/dc-kit-configurator/ |

I may go for the DC Chains/AFAM sprockets then. I can clearly see the model from their website and it looks specific for the 2016-2017. Any thoughts on those brands? |
Re: SV650AL7 chain and sprockets kit
All the major makes are OK as long as its the correct part and you keep it adjusted and lubed when in use. I use old engine oil for chain lube. Can be messy but my chains last 20000 miles plus. A Scotoiler will make them last 30000 plus.

Thank you guys, I'll go for that one then.
They also seem to have two versions (both QX rings): One is 3800 DAN (steel) and the more expensive 3630 DAN (gold) Apparently DAN is the unit of measure of tension strength (didn't know much about it) which one would you buy? I also need a tool to close the master, any suggestion? Thanks for all the help. |
