Drive chain

[Guest]

Ok

Have a Zephyr 1100 and I get the chain just right. Take it for a rip and by the time I get home after 200 miles the chain is slack again.

Is it time to dip in deep and get a new chain or just not give the old girl so much right hand.

Are you sure the wheel isn't slipping forward?

I marked the swinging arm and the camber has not moved so it is defo the chain

In that case I'd change the chain really quick, it can only stretch so far before it breaks, and you don't want that to happen.

your not over tightening it are you ?

its an easy mistake to do check how much slack you have when sat on the bike you will probably need someone to check it actually

if thats all ok then new chain time

[Guest]

Sounds like your over tightening it.

If your not and done what the above said, then defiantly time for a new chain fella.
