pwned my chain

I just got a new sprocket/chain, did the install just like i have many times before, and got about 3 wheelies into it and blew the bastard wide open. did I **** something up cause I was drinking? Or are the parts from 50stunt.com garbage?

Re: pwned my chain

how tight was your chain?

do you have an extedned swingarm?

And do you have a stock shock?




I've had a 50 stunt chain for 2 years now, with a stage 3 88 kit, and its still fine

the more suspension travel you have the more slack you need in the chain...

Re: pwned my chain

If there was something wrong with the chain , pm moorport . If you can show him that you just bought it , he will probably send you a new one .

Re: pwned my chain

I'm running a DID 420 Gold non o-ring. Working so far. I installed the chain and took the rear shock off and moved the swingarm up and down, to make sure it doesn't bind when fully compressed. I got a prowheel rear shock.
