I pulled the cover off of my XB12STT to have the chain case cover powder coated and when I pulled the inspection cover off the chain was tight...really tight, I could barely move it. The dealer did the service on it when I bought the bike new since I had the 9 primary sprocket put on for more down low torque. I know from dirt bikes I have had that a chain is better off slack than excessively tight. I have put about 3200 miles on it since I had this mod done. I didn't find any metal shavings other than normal minor stuff around the magnet. My concern now is the bearings, bearing race and cases. Any comments or suggestions??? Thanks. |
