Front/rear sprocket & chain replacement

Post by Urahara » Tue Aug 24, 2010 2:49 pm

Hi peeps,
So i have been looking through the haynes manual and it seems alot to take apart just to replace a front and rear sprocket and chain.

Perhaps i will just have to grin and bear and spent some time doing it.

Any shortcuts? :grin:

You don't have to remove the swingarm....

Use a chain with a soft link and a chain tool....or get your local shop to do it, sorted!

The guy wants to change the sprockets too, not just the chain.
