[@will7818]

Right on man, exactly the video I needed. Thanks for posting!

[@DanMX2112]

No problem! Glad it helped Will!

[@twsnow81]

Thanks for info!

[@DanMX2112]

Thanks for watching Cole!

[@petropete3122]

Tks for sharing Daniel. I have an asphalt scuffed oil tank which I think I will replace now and check tension on my chain. Tks again.

[@DanMX2112]

Your welcome sir, good luck and safe riding this season!

[@Nicky_Pin_It]

If you have a newer cat with the Aluminum lower gear I highly recommend the BDX steel replacement. Keeps the oil from turning to "tin man jizz"

[@DanMX2112]

Great suggestion, idk why anyone would run a aluminum gear on those chain cases. Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen!

[@Nicky_Pin_It]

@Daniel Tucker it was for weight savings, it's rare that they actually fail, they just wear and make a royal mess.

[@DanMX2112]

Makes sense!

[@weaselboy1315]

Yo where did you get them running boards?

[@timhendrickson696]

Dan could you use blue loctite on the chain case bolts when putting it back on? Thanks for the video

[@DanMX2112]

I wouldn’t, just torque them to spec and you should be dialed! Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!

[@silvesturn]

hey Dan question? why not drill and tap a 1/4" plug in the bottom of the casing for easy draining?

[@DanMX2112]

I think it could work if done correctly!

[@CoreNiel]

At what point does the oil drain? I assume as you loosened all the bolts oil started draining at the bottom. And rewatching your video, it looks clean (oil free) as you moved the 2 cycle tank away.

[@DanMX2112]

It starts draining once you break the seal on the bottom bolts. It’s only 12oz. so it’s not much oil at all. Hope that helps!

[@attackpilot]

What ratio do you use for 2 cycle oil? I have an m8000 with big bore and I don’t use the factory oil

[@DanMX2112]

You just add oil to the sleds, they are oil injected.

[@simplifiedbuilds7827]

Hey Dan, I was told I couldn't tension up my chain and that since it is auto adjustable I need to buy a new adjuster. I hear chain slap everytime I go im and out of reverse. I have the snopro

[@DanMX2112]

Sounds like it’s shot for sure. Dig into it and see what you find, but it is an auto adjust that tensions when in reverse. Don’t run it anymore!

[@simplifiedbuilds7827]

@@DanMX2112 sweet man appreciate it! I wasn't quite understanding when it did the adjustments but it makes sense now. Thanks man

[@DanMX2112]

Thanks for watching, I appreciate you!

[@user-hi9xt6ot1y]

How to adjust oil in zr 6000

[@DanMX2112]

Never messed with them, not sure on that.

[@alex6590]

Пришло время менять натяжитель цепи, башмак совсем стерся. Nb! На 7000 километрах , развалился натяжитель, разрушило весь корпус кробки.

[@machine7767]

Doesn't seem like the auto adjuster worked very well

[@DanMX2112]

Ya I thought the same thing, and maybe it’s a matter of reversing longer or harder for it to take effect, who knows.

[@davearmstrong8994]

And when you back up slacking chain so adjusted kicks in and auto adjusted

[@DanMX2112]

Nice, that makes total sense! Thanks Dave, hope you enjoyed the video.
