Motorbike Chain Adjustment Gadgets

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I teamed up with the guys from ‪@RiderCamTV‬ to do a video about chain adjustment gadgets. It was really good fun filming with them and I hope you enjoy. We take a look at 3 different tools available and give each of them a go. There is even a BPA racing chain adjuster giveaway.
As always, thanks for watching, I read all the comments and try to respond to as many as I can. Please check out the RiderCamTV channel too, they post some really great stuff!

    Thanks Tamsen great to see your doing video's again and finger's crossed for wonderful riding weather in the spring.. The lads at RiderCamTv are a great bunch and I've been subscribed to them for a while, they're both like two crazy brothers but there must be some back stage cat fighting any gossip to share Tamsen 🤔😜😜 Anyway with BPA tool I posted the question on the Ridercam video, say I calibrated the chain and marked it on the BPA tool, should I ensure the next time I check it to have it in the same location as before, would having it closer to the rear sprocket change the result? Great tool would love to give a home.

    I would like it for my Honda VARADERO because I'm very lazy like mark at doing my chain adjustment and this tool would make me check the chain regular as it can be very dangerous not having it adjustment properly 😉 great work guys and girls.

    Already subscribed to your channel after the first vid. with the boys on chain adjusting. This would be a very handy bit of kit - far better than my current set up of an old school ruler! Perfect for touring too.

    Yeah I wasn’t that impressed, the motion pro was ok, but the BPA racing tool was the easiest by far, so easy to do a quick check once it’s calibrated.

    Hello I've got a question: I've got thesame model sv650 as you have, and my chain slack keeps getting loose even with a new chain and sprockets. I set the axle nut on the correct Nm, but I think it keeps creeping forward as I drive. Do you maybe need to somehow locktite the chain adjuster bolts? I've also got the official manual and doing everything by the book, but I guess something must have worn that makes the chain slack adjustment go off. I just find it odd there is no way to somehow lock the adjuster bolts, other bikes do have these locking nuts in place. Any tip would be helpful thank you..!

    You didn't explain the chain monkey correctly at all, it's to set the chain tension not check it
