How to Adjust the Motorcycle Chain?

Views: 264     Author: Site Editor     Publish Time: 2020-02-25      Origin: Site


The motorcycle chain is a component of the motorcycle. The motorcycle chain has a huge impact on riding safety and riding experience. Therefore, we need to pay more attention to the chain. Here are six suggestions about how to keep the chain in a good condition.


1. The sprocket should be mounted on the shaft without skew and swing. In the same transmission assembly, the end faces of the two sprockets should be in the same plane and the phenomenon of the friction of side sprocket is not allowed. If the two wheels are too large, the chain is prone to de-chaining and accelerated wear. Care must be taken to check and adjust the offset when changing the sprocket.


2. The tightness of the lifting chain should be appropriate. If it is too tight, the power consumption will increase and the bearing is easy to wear. If it is too loose, chain is easy to jump and unchain.


3. If the new hoisting chain is too long or stretched after use, which is difficult to adjust, the chain link can be removed according to the situation, but the chain link must be even. 


4. After the sprocket wears seriously, the new sprocket and the new chain should be replaced at the same time to ensure good meshing. 


5. The old lifting chain can't be mixed with the new chains, otherwise it will easily cause impact in the transmission and break the chain.


6. Remember to fill the lubricant in time when working on the lifting chain. Lubricating oil must enter the mating clearance between the roller and the inner sleeve to improve working conditions to reduce wear.

We know that the motorcycle chain should be adjusted regularly as required, and it is required to maintain good straightness and tightness during the adjustment process. The so-called straightness is to ensure that the size of the toothed disc and the chain are on the same line, so that the toothed disc and the chain will not wear too fast and the chain will not lose during driving. If you do not adjust the chain for a long time, it will be stretched due to wear or deformation. Many drivers have been unable to adjust in time due to lack of maintenance knowledge, and there has been a phenomenon of falling off of the chain. 


The six correct ways to adjust the motorcycle chain are as followed.


1. Timely adjust to keep the tightness of the motorcycle chain at 15mm-20mm, always check the cushion bearing and fill the grease on time.


2. When adjusting the chain, in addition to adjusting the scale according to the frame chain adjustment, we also need to observe whether the front and rear toothed discs are on the same line. If the frame or the rear fork is damaged, then adjusting the chain according to its scale will enter a misunderstanding. We mistakenly believe that the chain and tooth plate are on the same line, and the linearity has actually been destroyed. So, this check is very important. If you find the problem, you should correct it immediately.


3. When replacing the chain of chainrings, pay attention to choose high-quality products, which can prolong the service life. Don't buy cheap products and buy non-conforming products.


4. Always check the matching clearance between the rear fork rubber sleeve and the fork and fork shaft. The connection between the rear fork and the frame is realized by the fork shaft, and is equipped with a buffer rubber sleeve. Since the quality of the domestic buffer rubber sleeve is not very stable, it is particularly prone to looseness. Once the joint is loose, the rear wheel will be displaced under the restraint of the chain when the motorcycle starts or accelerates. The magnitude of the displacement is determined by the degree of damage of the cushion rubber sleeve.


5. Regularly clean the chain and the toothed disc, and fill the grease in time. In rainy and snowy days and muddy roads, the maintenance of chains and chainrings should be strengthened. Only in this way can the service life of chain chainrings be extended.
