250-500cc Chain adjustment on WR300

So bought mine in June, got roughly 200 miles on her now. I have yet to need to adjust the chain if I follow what the manual says. Is this normal or am I not beating her hard enough?

sounds ok to me, i thought mine needed adjusting, but once i read the manual, it certainly didnt.

Ive done 400klms, total 1100klms

I bought mine in april, and didn't ride it at all most of the summer (rode my 200 in the mountains), so mine only has 2000 or so miles on it. I've adjusted the chain twice. both times it was only about 1/3 or 1/2 turn on the adjusters.

200 miles is less than the first race weekend i had the bike, lol.

not to threadjack here, but i'm gonna.

what replacement sprockets are you guys running? the cheapies that the local dealer carries seem to get chewed up in about 6 months. i'm thinking of the ironman next but, not sure. input?

resume

i haven't had to replace mine yet, but i purchased iron man sprockets for when the time comes in a month or so. I had a 50% off coupon (girlfriend won a national hare and hound race), but even at regular price (discount for blue ribbon members) they're not unreasonable if they last a little longer. They appear to me to be thicker. I don't know if that could cause problems in sticky mud, but I don't ride in sticky mud so i don't care.

Things I like about ironman:
good reputation
made in america!!!
supports blue ribbon coalition and racing in the west

thanks, i think i'll give them a try after my moab trip. 1 week away. braaaaaaap! woohoo.

haha, only 5 days for me, leaving wed afternoon

and you're a good 8 hours closer.
