    The Chain & Sprockets on your motorcycle tend to wear out over time and require replacement. This video will walk you through what to look for and the proper way to replace both the front and rear sprockets, along with the chain on your machine. When you are replacing these parts on your bike it's important to replace both sprockets and the chain all at the same time. If you only replace one or the other it could cause premature wear of these components. Rocky Mountain ATV/MC carries chains and sprockets for just about every machine and gives you gearing options along with color and design options to suit your specific needs. In this video we're installing Primary Drive Front and Rear Sprockets along with a Primary Drive Gold X-Ring Chain onto a Suzuki RMZ250 but these same steps can be used to replace the chain and sprockets on just about any dirt bike.

    At 6:29, when re-installing the rear wheel, that would also be a magnificent time to re-grease your axle. Lots of riders neglect this. Makes such a huge difference. I have always used the blue marine grease you can get at walmart.

      and at the end make sure the axle blocks are pushed up against the adjuster bolts unless you want your wheel falling off

    Where would be the best place to put a chain idler on a softail motorcycle, on the swing arm itself?

    I changed the rear sprocket and rear wheel but not the front sprocket and chain. When i spin the rear wheel on the stand the chain seems to grip as it leaves the sprocket at the top and then ping off the sprocket. Could this be wheel alignment or is it likely to need a new chain and front sprocket?

    @Trav Ohlsen Which bike are you riding? Is it the jam nut that is stripped or is it the bolt head or threads? If it's any of the above you'll have to remove them any way you can and just replace the parts. If it's the threads in the swingarm that are stripped you'll have to drill and tap them and you can use a heli coil or something similar to fix them but it just depends on which part is stripped.

    So when removing/installing the rear wheel, you can just slip it out of the break? Their is nothing you have to disassemble to get the wheels disc out of the break itself?

    • @phillipstoltzfus3014

      Yeah that is usually how it is. Sometimes it is a pain to slip the brake back in between the pads .

    When I was a kid, my friend was riding his bmx bike and reached down to check his chain ... he kept peddling and his fingers went into the front sprocket. His fingers stayed there until his dad came and loosened the back rim and got the chain loose 😮

    3:35 blows my mind someone would wear down a sprocket that far

    OK, To get the correct torque reading the torque wrench should be put on the Nut, not the bolt head. Using the bolt head will give an false reading due to measuring the addtional friction of turning the bolt in the sprocket. Always apply torque to the nut in these applications! 🙂

    What tool set do I need to change my sprockets 17t and 45t

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  5 років тому

      Just a good 'ol set of metric hand tools. End wrenches, Ratchet/Sockets, Allen wrenches, etc.

    It may have already been said but there is no need to add Threadlock on Nylock nuts.

    • @ashtontuttle9789
      @ashtontuttle9789 4 роки тому

      yes there is, peace of mind ;) ,double protection

  • @judownie
    @judownie 4 роки тому

    Why do you add thread lock when the nuts are already supplied as locknuts? Belt and braces perhaps?

    • @rmatvmc
      @rmatvmc  4 роки тому +2

      I've seen too many sprocket bolts loosen up and ruin the sprocket and hub. A little threadlocker is extra security and insurance to ensure that won't happen. - Wes

      Always replace both sprockets and chain at the same time or you will end up ruining the new parts
