  • Replaced chain and sprocket on my Transalp.
    The job takes the better part of a day, and a proper chain tool is a must. Don't do this without a proper chain tool! Cleaning the various parts and nuts took approx. an hour, but is also mandatory.
    Torque settings: 45Nm for the rear sprocket nuts, in stages 20Nm - 45Nm, crosswise. Rear axle nut: 88Nm.

    Hi! Why don't you use an angle grinder to break the chain?! It's much easier and faster...
    Then you only have to pull through the new chain connected to the old one by the opened link.
    Next step is to remove the rear wheel.
    Then pull out the sprocket holder first, so you can easily loose the bolts in the vise.
    Next and most important step is to grease the rubber bushings of the rear sprocket holder to prevent abrasive wear there.
    Then the rest can be done as shown.
    I would use a so called superpinion as the front sprocket, because the transalp has sometimes a weak gearbox output shaft, in order to prevent extensive wear at this point.
    In the end there's no need to remove the upper and lower chain gaurd...

    Hi mate, can you tell me how many link size your chain was? My manual says 110 link for the 650 transalp but it's 7 inch too short. I was told to use a 118 link but didn't know if it would need shortening or go straight on.

    First of all thank you for the video sharing, it was very informative.
    Have you done any work on the rear brake pads when removing and installing the rear tire?

      Glad you found the video helpful. No, I did not dismantle the rear brakes. The brake saddle is held in place by the rear axle, and a groove on the inside of the right swingarm frame. Once you remove the axle, the brake saddle is loose, and can be pulled off the disc. Installation is just a reversal of these steps.
