fxstbi Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) I'm finishing my restoration on my 250 and noticed that there is no plastic guide or wear block on top of the swing arm like there are in the later models. Anyone come up with an alternate solution to prevent the chain from hitting the top of the swing arm? Edited July 16, 2015 by fxstbi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2stroke4stroke Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 I used a suitable thickness of rubber cut in to a strip, wrapped it round the pivot then used a tie wrap to hold the two long ends of the U to the arm. That lasted well enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitehawk175 Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Use swingarm protector from TY175 with a little work it can be made to fit part is easy to get. I use them on my 250's being quite a soft compound they do wear out quite quickly though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
