Cam Chain Tensioner Adjustment [TDM900]

[@MyTiger900]

Thank You for Your videos, You have very helpful advice on TDM 900 👍! Has this problem ever been solved by Yamaha in later models? I have TDM RN18 Year 2010.

Hello. I think this part hasn't been improved even in the latter model.

[@cryptoairdata4417]

Is it better to turn the crank to T ? Then adjust the tensioner ?

[@GalapagosJapan]

This is an irregular way, so yes. It should be your way.

[@balazs2152]

Could you tell me the part number of this tensioner?

[@GalapagosJapan]

The genuine parts# is 5PS-12210-00. But mine is modified for manual adjustment.

can you tell us the one you installed were to buy@@GalapagosJapan

[@GalapagosJapan]

This tensioner replaces the original auto tensioner's cap with a bolt and nut to hold down the minus screw inside the tensioner to prevent it from coming back. @73dominoav

Thank you ​@@GalapagosJapan Is this an easy DIY Bolt and nout solution, or do i need to special parts to fix this? More info will be appreciated.

@@GalapagosJapan I'm also interested in this, you just simply remove the original screw and install a longer one along with a locknut?
