Guest Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Hi. New to here and owning bikes after long spell off. Any tips how to tighten chain on a new 65 plate Triumph Sprint GT 1050?? Thx Quote
iangaryprice Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Hi,I think the Sprint has an eccentric axle adjuster. You basically have to slacked the clamp bolt, then rotate the adjuster. To do it correctly you will need a manual or the owners handbook often shows how to adjust the chain. Nice bike, I ma thinking of one for my next bike. Let me know how you get on with it. Quote
Guest Posted February 2, 2016 Posted February 2, 2016 I dislike eccentric adjusters, as I discovered yonks ago on a GPZ900R.They alter the bike's handling by raising or lowering the back end. Quote

Could you honestly tell the difference of that very small change? I'm betting it was in your head or you are Rossi in disguise! Quote
