Hi all, I have read through few posts but not found what I'm after..
I have a 01 650 engine, full rebuild is in the finishing stages.
I have a Ali cam sprocket in good condition. New iwis chain, new modified 04-08 cct blade, and original cct.
When I install my blade, then install my tensioner housing, I then insert he spring and locking bolt into the tensioner. Let it do its thing and then remove it to count clicks.
I have 16 clicks total to use, and with the new chain and new blade. In using 12 up already! Leaving me with only 4 clicks remaining until I max out.
Reading other posts about it some are using 5 clicks, and some it uses none, I can't work out how I am using 12 with new parts!
It's almost like the chain is to long? As it's already very close to the water channel and I can see evidence that it has rubbed in the past. But it's new and correct for my bike.
Scratching my head as to how I can solve this, my old cct blade turns out to be a 400-501 04-08 item, which doesn't make it any better.
Any suggestions would be appreciated please.
Thanks
