    Squeaky brakes are usually caused more by vibration between the brake pads and the contact points on the caliper. Likely needs a refresh of grease on those points.

    Nice vídeo! For chain adjustment, there is a piece that lines up with the chain and makes easier to see if it is adjusted. I do not usually trust on the lines from the adjust only. It is interesting to check that.

    With the master link removed. use the master link or zipties to connect the new chain to the old chain and as you pull out the old chain you put the new chain on the front sprocket. then size the chain on the bike.

    You forgot to tighten the two allen head bolts on the inside of the adjuster. I have the same ones on my Grom. Those two allen's slightly expand the adjuster locking it into the swing arm. That way they won't fall out when the axle is removed.

  • @FRESHx913x
    @FRESHx913x 3 роки тому +1

    Sharp edge always faces out. Idea is the sharp edge can dig into the ends of the rivet and have a good hold. The smooth side can slip over the end of the rivet.
    Same with c clips. Like the one used on the throttle lever pin on Harleys. Sharp out. Probably a better explanation of it on Google some where.

    • @briarfox637
      @briarfox637 2 роки тому

      Sharp edge always faces away from the load, in this case, the bike. You are correct. Also, the reason you do it with washers, etc, is the idea is the smooth edge does not dig into the painted surface or otherwise scratch and rust non painted surfaces.
      Sharp edges away from the load or surface, smooth edge towards the load or painted surface (bike).

    • @BlockheadMoto
      @BlockheadMoto  3 роки тому +1

      Bike only has like 1800 miles on it, so it's not like they've got that much wear on them at all, it's just been beat in those 1800 miles, haha. Sprockets will be quick and easy to replace when that times comes.

    Questions with that new chain in a few rides or so will you ever have like a break or dent in it ? If so is it easy to repair it with the extra chain part that you took off with ?

    • @BlockheadMoto
      @BlockheadMoto  3 роки тому +1

      It shouldn't break or dent. It'll 'break in' if that's what you mean, which will add to the slack of it, but all you have to do to fix that is adjust the chain tension with the new tensioners.

    What was the purpose of the spools added to the chain adjusters at the end?

    • @BlockheadMoto
      @BlockheadMoto  3 роки тому +2

      The spools allow you to lift up the bike with a rear stand, making it easier and faster to do maintenance, such as chain tensioning, or even installs when you need the bike to set upright.

  • @reallyoldfart6540
    @reallyoldfart6540 3 роки тому +1

    I replaced my chain and sprockets at 5800 miles, 106 links, at Sprocket Center. I could pull back on the chain and it would give a tiny bit, bad sprocket. So 5000 miles maybe the limit on the stock sprockets... Those new adjusters look really nice and beefy.
