Motorbike Chain Adjustment Gadgets

[@Christian-ve1wi]

Thanks Tamsen great to see your doing video's again and finger's crossed for wonderful riding weather in the spring.. The lads at RiderCamTv are a great bunch and I've been subscribed to them for a while, they're both like two crazy brothers but there must be some back stage cat fighting any gossip to share Tamsen 🤔😜😜 Anyway with BPA tool I posted the question on the Ridercam video, say I calibrated the chain and marked it on the BPA tool, should I ensure the next time I check it to have it in the same location as before, would having it closer to the rear sprocket change the result? Great tool would love to give a home.

I threw the chain monkey in the bin at the end of my review, yet the Motion Pro worked brilliantly.

[@TamsenCooper]

Yeah I wasn’t that impressed, the motion pro was ok, but the BPA racing tool was the easiest by far, so easy to do a quick check once it’s calibrated.

I always set chain tension with me sat on bike…..

[@TamsenCooper]

Yeah, some manuals for some models have centre stand, some side stand. Always worth checking the book for your bike.

[@Airgunfunrich]

@@TamsenCooper always just done it that way. Currently riding a 2000 sv 650 don’t know if that’s right or wrong?

Hi the instruction on the chain monkry states to remove the black domecover befors use , it works well but always on tge loose side , mine states 25 to 35 mm and it leaves the chain slack on 35mm

[@stonedagain1982]

I would like it for my Honda VARADERO because I'm very lazy like mark at doing my chain adjustment and this tool would make me check the chain regular as it can be very dangerous not having it adjustment properly 😉 great work guys and girls.

Hey! How are you? I've missed seeing new content from you. Welcome back.

[@TamsenCooper]

Thank you!!

[@billybilly7100]

Already subscribed to your channel after the first vid. with the boys on chain adjusting. This would be a very handy bit of kit - far better than my current set up of an old school ruler! Perfect for touring too.

Congratulations to the channel and greetings from the Polish backyard. Today I'm cooking caliper soup and potatoes topped with oil from the front fork. ;-)

[@carlbandit2055]

Wify would like this for her gs750

[@amandabrooker9561]

I ride a yamaha MT09 tracer, and iam paranoid over chain adjustment.

[@TamsenCooper]

Yeah, a lot of people out there never check it, and it’s so important!

[@matthewholmes7597]

Nice bike amanda what you had out of it

[@keaponlaffin6737]

Hello I've got a question: I've got thesame model sv650 as you have, and my chain slack keeps getting loose even with a new chain and sprockets. I set the axle nut on the correct Nm, but I think it keeps creeping forward as I drive. Do you maybe need to somehow locktite the chain adjuster bolts? I've also got the official manual and doing everything by the book, but I guess something must have worn that makes the chain slack adjustment go off. I just find it odd there is no way to somehow lock the adjuster bolts, other bikes do have these locking nuts in place. Any tip would be helpful thank you..!

[@paulabraham8724]

Liked and subscribed. I am also a tool who needs a tool to deal with the chain on my Honda NC750x.

[@Reggiereg124]

Hi, I’d like one of these for my Africa twin adventure sport pleas, looks so quick and easy which would be ideal as I could spend some quality time taking my goldfish for its swimming lessons😬

Na het zien van deze video besloten deze spannings meter te kopen, bedank voor deze video.

[@DOTHITHANHH]

that's great, can I ask y what major I need to study that can this work like you?

[@bren106]

Will I have a hope of being drawn for one of these? I have loads of luck - all of it bad. (Newly subbed to a channel that has never been shown to me by youtube)

[@TamsenCooper]

Thanks for the sub! I hope you like some of my other videos too.

[@matthewholmes7597]

@@TamsenCooper Hi Tamsen how are you can you do a pillion ride at all

[@matthewshannon6318]

You didn't explain the chain monkey correctly at all, it's to set the chain tension not check it

[@tomtilley3162]

could i please be in with a chance to win something lol even if mark has to demo it lol altho my tdm 900 is ready for some tlc and this would be epic

[@marklamb8219]

Like n sub Be great to have 1 for my klr650 so when showing someone to learn to ride I'd look like a pro explaining the chain. (Had mechanic adjust the chain...ssshhh lol) Glad you did vid with the boys as able to show my girl other females do it .

Tape mesure takes all of 10 seconds , 50 pence from the locall garage , if you cant operate a tape mesure maybe they should not be riding
