elavir Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 Does some of the members know a link to a video which shows the replacement of the cam chain of a 1990 gsxr750? TIA, Cheers Richard. Quote
TonyGee Posted June 5, 2022 Posted June 5, 2022 can't say ive ever seen one but im sure someone has done one !!!! are you sure it needs a new chain ? is the tensioner ok ? do you know the mileage on the engine ? Quote
elavir Posted June 6, 2022 Author Posted June 6, 2022 Hi Tony, the bike has just past the 100000km km and i have screwed the tensioner up too tighten te chain. It does run rather smooth now but given the milage and the handscrewed tensioner i think its time to replace it. Quote
Gixer1460 Posted June 6, 2022 Posted June 6, 2022 I doubt you'll fine a video specific to your bike but a 'generic one', for a 4 cylinder, centre run STANDARD chain will be enough. A Hyvo chain as fitted to Blandits is slightly different (more fiddly) so best not look at that! It's a relatively simple procedure - I had to do one whilst on a dyno trying to set up some carbs, it took about an hour and a half and a few pairs of hands - two pairs is minimum as peening over the rivet link is a pain on your own!

Thnx for the info, that makes searching for the right video a lot easier. Edited June 6, 2022 by elavir Typing does weird Quote
