    The chain and sprockets on your motorcycle or ATV are subject to high amounts of load during riding. Regular maintenance is required to keep your drivetrain operating smoothly and eventually the chain and sprockets will need replaced before other components get damaged. In this quick tip, Charles shows an easy trick that will help you install a new chain on your dirt bike.

      But if you've already changed the sprockets the chain has to come off. This is completely bs

  • @Jaszczur-sp2tx

      That's what I was thinking, the sprockets were off so the old chain was off

    • @YogiTheBearMan
      @YogiTheBearMan 10 месяцев назад +7

      Ya he even said after changing the sprocket, so it sounds like he put the old chain back on just to do this trick rather than just put the new one on 😆

      Umm. Got a point there. Would be a little tricky change a sprocket without removing the chain lol. So let’s see. He took off his old chain. Changed his sprockets. Reinstalled old chain to make new chain easy to instal? That’s like removing the motor to change the oil 😂😂

    May I ask when cutting chain length is it best to put the axle at the fairest point back in the swing arm and then pull it tight?

    • @YogiTheBearMan
      @YogiTheBearMan 10 месяцев назад +1

      I think you want to bring the axle forward some so the chain has room to stretch. You’ll adjust it back as the chain wears. My new chain was about a link shorter than the old even though they were actually the same number of links!

    • @YogiTheBearMan
      @YogiTheBearMan 10 месяцев назад +1

      Honestly I cut it to the correct number of links per OEM rather than eyeballing it

    Wait…so you take the old chain off, remove wheel, remove old sprockets, install new sprockets, install wheel, install old chain and then use the old chain to install the new one?
    Couldn’t you just skip straight to installing the new chain?
    Maybe my old age is catching up to me.

    How do you replace the sprockets without removing the chain?

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  6 месяцев назад

      You might be able to loosen the axle adjustor bolts and move your front wheel forward and see if that gives you enough slack. But we recommend replacing the chain and sprockets at the same time to avoid premature wear on the other components.

    Omg, so he replaced the sprockets, then manually re fed in the old chain to then use it to feed in the new. Double handling much.

  • @andreasharboe1631
    @andreasharboe1631 10 месяцев назад +1

    So you swap out the worn sprockets, put on your old crusty ass chain again, only to use it to feed on the new shiny chain. Good on you RMC. Real clever.
