    new chain and sprokets

    Saturday, July 21st, 2007

    I’ve installed the new chain and sprokets.

    since the new chain was the endless type so I had to disassemble  the rear suspension  anyway,  I’ve checked and re-lubed the suspension linkage bearings…

    I  was a bit stressed about the gearbox output shaft bearing, as it’s prone to fail (this would be a disaster as changing would involve splitting the engine case). Luckily there was no play on the output shaft.
