chain tensioner
|
I'm looking for motorcycle chain tensioners but I'm not sure what
these things look like.
I've tried searching for chain tensioners but they seem to be flat
objects made of plastic.
Are motorcycle chain tensioners similar to that of a mountain bike or
are they totally different?
Please give me a website with pictures of a chain tensioner.
|
Are you so totally incompetent that you can't find one on web-search? It
took me 10 seconds.

If you design your chain drive system with the drive sprocket concentric with
the swing arm pivot, and use a Hy-Vo chain in a chain case, you won't need
any chain tensioner.
|
Why a hy-vo chain anyway? Not that there's any I know of that's really
up to that sort of power transmission. Concentric drive sprocket means
the chain tension is constant whatever the rear wheel is doing, sure.
I can only think of one production bike that currently has it, though
I'm sure that there have been several in the past.
