ladytrialer Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 hi, use the snail cams that are on either side of your wheel spindle to aline the wheel, this in turn tensions your chain the snail cams will have either notches or lines to help get it correct. make sure you have them the same both sides. i was told that if you can easily get your thumb between tensioner and swingarm your about right. but thats just how i do mine. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
