Hi everyone !


Can you please tell me how that thing called :) I'm talking about a metallic part with scale on it and bolt and with hole for rear axle - it used for wheel alignment. Hopefully my description makes sense. Anyone shed some light please ? The nuts on it have gone very rusty and totally stuck and WD40 doesn't help, but I need to adjust chain, so I want to replace it with another one but I need to know how its called :)


Thanks

Alex

Oh the thingy at the end of the swingarm to move the wheel back inline the tighten the chain, with the marks on it to keep it alined.












NO SORRY not got a clue to its name.

Just phone the dealer explain it like you have to us and they will let you know what its called and how much it is.

Failing that wait for WalneyFrankie to get up.

If u mean the thing on the end of the swingarm, that when tightened or loosened it changes the chain;

Cheers guys, appreciate your swift comeback... Yes, I was talking about, I guess, tensioner with ruler/scale markings and a hole for the rear axle.

The bike is Honda NXR125 Bros (UK variant is called XR125), 2004


BTW, anyone can suggest what I can do to unscrew that stuck nut ? As I said, WD-40 has been applied I think 20 times in the last month and it just doesn't help, I tried my best with spanner and it just damaged nut's flanges :( any ideas here ?
