chain

Know this is a moot point for vmax owners, but sure some of you have or do own chain drive bikes... The original chain on my Z is on it's last legs. Its nearing 24k miles. The rollers are blued from heat and it's got a couple stiff links that start to complain after 2-300 miles without lube...

Well guys, Sean has sold me a set of 1428 chain drive engine cases to build my turbo motor on. Havent got the parts yet, but the swingarm was a PCW setup originally. Sean doesnt know what kind of wheel was on it originally and I am wondering if you guys any ideas or suggesntions? I know the...

This is gonna sound funny on a forum dedicated to shaft drive bike BUT, I am about to swap sprockets and a new chain on my old FZR fighter project. Plus, my wife now has her KLX, so I have 2 chain bikes in my garage. I think it is finally time to invest in a chain tool. Does anyone have any...

The concept is simple enough but I'm curious about the motor side of this equation. How are they doing it? Remove the bevel gear? Or is it outside of the case somehow attached to the midgear? Just playin with the idea, don't have nearly enough time and money for the idea but boy it sure...

Checking to see if anyone is having a problem on a chain drive bike with the bolt at the middle gear bearing coming loose. After about 100miles the bolt starts to get loose. I have tried red locktight and staking the bolt, but still it backs out. Any ideas on how to solve the problem. :ummm...

I have a MadMax 250 swingarm currently shaft driven and would like to convert to chain, anyone know of a conversion kit to do this? Let me know, Thanks, Ed

Hi all: Any of you good people know who makes high-quality custom-length motorcycle chains? I'm looking to get one made in the 530 width. Thanks very much. Elimax

Ran across this ad and just had to share, why would someone prefer a chain drive over the drive shaft :confused2: Click Here!

Anyone here that has a chain drive max ?Just wondering if you seen or heard the new set up John at pcw has for chain drive. I got 500 mile on my new motor and the new sealing set up at the output shaft is working great. I am really impressed with the machine work he did to pull this off.The...

Hi all, I have converted by bike to a chain drive ... would jus like to enquire with those who have a chain drive on.. what kind of sprocket combination did you use? i know the vmax final ratio is around 3.44? i intend to use the bigger sprocket sizes for the front.. looking at a 17... based...

Here's a fun game that's been going on for literally years with thousands of replies at another forum I'm on with some pretty hilarious results....even in that forum's "PG-13" atmosphere. Should only get better here in the burn out pit. It's pretty simple, you add a phrase to what the...

I have my #2-4 head off. I was looking at the chain guide and there is a groove about 1/16 deep in on it. I was wondering if this is a design to keep it in place or is it supposed to be flat. I called the dealer they did not know. thanks Mike

Guy is kinda cluelless from what it sounds, so Engine mods are a big ?. It does appear someone spent some cash on this bike though. It will be interesting what this bike brings. The whole "no title" thing is enough to keep me away. I would love to know what all mods have been done though...

here is a 15" rim on eBay that is set up for a chain drive. $70 and no bids yet...

I have been wanting to see if a true bolt-on chain-drive conversion housing can be designed for the V-max....I designed one for the XS750/850 and the XS1100 which are all shaft drive. I have my own CNC machine and sell the housings with all hardware for $450....I was curious what size billet I...

Greetings; Does any one have or know of a site with good photos of a chain drive? Mostly concerned with the cases. thanks sandy
