Re: Fitting New Chain......Help!

Doh!! That'll teach me to presume. After wresting for 2 to 3 hours with 3 different rear sprockets, chains etc I had the bright idea of counting the front sprocket which I thought was 18 but low and behold it was a 19! Problem now solved and 18 tooth fitted, everything fits like a glove now. Thanks ...

Fitting New Chain......Help!

Just bought a new Iwis chain for my wife's GP and am trying to fit it but it's really tight and I can't get the rear sprocket central to fit the clutch spider. It's only 1 or 2mm out but just enough to stop me being able to fit it. Any suggestions or tips would be really helpful. Thanks in advance.

Found this hope it works

Thanks, I've done this conversion before and will probably do this time but just wondered if the actual kickstart shaft is different between the GP and Li/SX/TV?

Chain guides

Is it advisable to keep the bottom chain guide once replacing the top one with a nylon slipper adjuster or is it best left out?

Re: Adjusting kickstart?

Are the Li kickstart shafts and GP ones the same and interchangeable?
