This will be very useful as my svart's chain is getting loose, thank you :)

Thank you :)

I enjoyed this

[@ScroomDroller]

don't you need to adjust the chain tensioner on both sides the exact same amount for the rear wheel to be straight?

[@UnboxMyLife]

Yes of course. Therefor i measure each side. But you have some small lines aswell on the swing that you can follow. If you dont get it straight it can tear your chain or sprocket down and the bike will Crab when you driving it loosing traction out on the road.

Hi there, just clicked on the video to leave a comment but when you measure the 5-7mm do you do it from the lip of the swingarm or the slightly higher spot behind the lip?

[@UnboxMyLife]

Hi ! The Lip of the arm is correct :)

Thank you!

Am I right in thinking it is same process for adjusting tension on the 125 model?

[@UnboxMyLife]

Hi ! Yes it would be the same process for that one.

Bro, did you get your husky tuned after putting the decat with the stock muffler? Or is it running fine without it?

[@UnboxMyLife]

Its running fine. You can see my other video when i change sparkplug. It looks all good.

[@papercut1987]

should it be 8mm from the bottom of the swing arm or from the edge?

[@UnboxMyLife]

Hi ! From the bottom, where the chain touches the swing :)

Hi, are you doing dual sport riding because the look of the tyres? What tyres are they? Cheers

[@UnboxMyLife]

Hi ! Yes, im doing gravel and tarmac with it. The tires are the original ones that came with the bike. Thats one thing i really love with it :)

[@johnwayne7210]

@@UnboxMyLife I do look at my 701 svartpillen and imagine spare spoke wheels with knobbies so to be used as an adventure/dirt bike. As there are these KTM off road 390/690Rs.

[@UnboxMyLife]

@@johnwayne7210 I think that a real Scramblers should have gravel tires original.
