Drive Chain.

[Terry]

Scottoiler; fine & dandy, maybe you'll get a bit more life out of the chain & sprockets. But hey, put a new chain on & 2 new sprockets, & 2 new sprockets everytime you change the chain. When the chain breaks & kills ya cause you though you'd get a few extra miles out of it, good on ya. Chains & Sprockets are CONSUMABLES. Cans of Super Duper Teflon Chain Lube are cheap, so is Kero from your local supermarket. There is a hell of a load on a Busa Chain & Sprockets, a bit more than an R1 piece of shi*.

Thanks for your reply,
Had chain & sprockets checked at roadworthy, all came up fine, am looking to change them all out, as previous owner installed different cogs to give him faster acceleration.
Scottoiler initially delivered far too much oil but is now setup right.

p/s. once had the front cog come of a GS850 doing 110. fortunately it sat on the shaft till I came to a halt. so I am very cautious when it comes to chains, rattles and squeeks.
