Tightening Chain on Chinese 4 wheeler


Recommended Posts

wayyyy to loose.  It should have about a inch or so wiggle room- you're looking at like 3 or 4 inches lol  There should either be a tensioner or the rear axle adjusts- lift the rear end and there are some bolts to loosen and then the axle swings forward and backward- you want to pull it fairly tight as the chain loosens up with heat.  Also make sure the chain is well oiled so none of the links are bound up- that will make it jump sprocket too even if its tight.

that chain is so loose, it might have one too many links on it- I would try tightening it first tho

      If you had to choose one mod that you couldn't live without, or had to recommend one what would it be?

      Hello, would this be a good Master Link tool for pressing master link plate back on? I've seen others made of aluminum but thought this one might hold up better. Thanks! 🙂

      Hello All
      I'm kinda new to ATVs. I just bought a 1987 Suzuki quad runner 230 Dual Range. I'm having a problem finding info on it. It's very clean, only 2.800 miles. The front wheels are only 30 in.center to center. I was thinking about adding wheel spacers to give it more stability. I realize the added stress on ball joints and bearings. I'm wondering if there are any other concerns? Any input is greatly appreciated!

      It's been a long time since I have used a forum, I was the admin of one for quite a few years, had thousands of daily active members, with lots of crazy posts and spammers, so I salute the admins. Anyway, just waving my greasy hands, Hopefully I can help others out.
