Yamaha R7 Driven Captive Axle Block Adjusters Install | Sportbike Track Gear

[@bluessrv1]

These are cool, especially for changing out a tire and having the axle be able to go right in. I'm not a track biker but I change my own tires and the problem I almost always have is getting that damn axle back through. Trying to lift the tire and keep all the parts in line, while threading the axle can be a PITA! Too bad they didn't make these for my Honda.

The Pitbull tire wedge is a god send for that problem my friend.

I use this every weekend we are at the track multiple times. - Van

Captive wheel spacers are a solid addition for sure. - Van

Do you have to take out the axle to install the chain adjuster on the Yamaha r7

[@sportbiketrackgear]

Yes you have to take the axle out to install these on the R7. - Van

[@sizmtrz]

A) are those shirts available? and B) does the r7 have an issue with the rear brake needing to be "captive" as well for quick change?

STG Live Free Or Die T Shirt V2 www.sportbiketrackgear.com/stg-live-free-or-die-t-shirt-v2/ A captive rear caliper is never a bad thing. I have a custom solution for our MotoAmerica Ninja 400 which really makes changing the rear tire easy. When I prep this for the track I will try to find a good way to get that done with the R7. - Van

[@jeremyhorne1989]

What does the top and bottom bolts thread into?

[@sportbiketrackgear]

They drive cams that push outwards and hold the chain adjusters in place. We have been using these on our R7 and they work well. - Van

And I’ve been duct taping my blocks in place

[@sportbiketrackgear]

If you do not want to add something like this you can drill and safety wire the OEM adjuster caps and add a spring. - Van

@@sportbiketrackgear I’ve a third gen SV650 and unfortunately there’s not much “streetable” aftermarket. These adjusters are a great idea even if it’s for a DIYer doing tire work twice a year

[@matthewdoyle4418]

Chain slack should be set with suspension properly addressed and rider and gear on the bike....to set your chain at static is to improperly set it I/E THE SLACK WILL CHANGE AT FULL COMPRESSION AND COULD HINDER SUSPENSION TRAVEL

[@sportbiketrackgear]

This is the number noted in the secret document that comes with the bike. The only time I would deviate from this is when you have modified the ride height by changing the length of the rear shock. On our race bikes I find the number I will use moving forward by removing the rear shock, holding the swingarm at it's longest point then setting the chain so there is just a touch of slack. Once I have done this I reinstall the shock then take a measurement with the bike on the stand. Whatever that number is that is the one I will use. - Van
