TE 511 Chain Slack?

I think I'm going to try the Cycra CRMs. They mount closer to the bar mount. Pricey, though.

I use those, like them.

I found the Cycra full racer pack on Amazon for $90 something. It came today so I mounted it up. The pack includes everything needed to mount them. I did have to uninstall my ignition switch and cut off the factory switch mount. But the switch came with an alternative mount which actually puts the switch in a better position. The Cycra is a very nice product and at that price was probably cheaper than the cycle gear stuff overall. I also got my Trail Tech woods bend bars today. Very comfortable.

Trying to check out at ziptyracing.com. Used the Cafe Husky coupon code and the system wants to charge $14.30 for shipping.

Try again.

Done. Thank you!

If I had a dollar for every time some "Numpty" says to me "Hey, your chain is to tight", id be able to buy me a new bike by now.

I'm going to guess that the chain should be set to have a 5mm play "gap" and not the 0.04" which is also specified in the attachment. By my admittedly poor math .040" translates closer to 1mm.

I've seen bigger errors in the manual- my son's 2012 511 calls for a 2 or 3 inch valve clearance.

found it. how about a 15" clearance. Not only off by a couple of orders of magnitude, but the conversion is wrong- add to that, the goofy euro comma is used intermittently for our decimal point.

Yea, 5mm is good. Looks tight. But it works fine.

Run at least 20mm slack.
5mm is hard for some people to gauge and they often end up too tight.
There's NO harm in running the chain a little loose (other than a bit of chain rattle at low rpm), however, we've seen quite a few damaged bikes with worn out countershaft splines from over tightening on our FB page.

Run it a little loose, keep it lubed, ride happy.
