Chain & sprocket change help?
Hi Folks,
Am in need of assistance... anyone local to me willing to help me change my chain and sprocket one evening this week? I'll pop round with a few beers or what ever your choice of tipple takes your fancy. I'm going to order it today so hopefully it will arrive tomorrow... soft rivet type chain.... |

Re: Chain & Sprocket change
I'll admit to using a micrometer to check plate distances when fitting the master link, I think some other steps may be a little excessive....

Re: Chain & sprocket change help?
I have a micrometer but not a digital display.... maybe I should put that on my shopping list
 I didn't get round to ordering the chain&sprocket  too many choices.... Standard OE replacement, Heavy duty, or Extreme.... all with gold chains and steel front and rear sprockets.... £80-£150 price variance...
