sandman81 Posted March 12, 2010 Report Posted March 12, 2010 That sproket no good. Like i said, if no money just change the sproket then go from there. Quote
White97Banshee Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Posted March 12, 2010 Got a new Primary Drive 41t rear sprocket coming from RMATV. Thanks guys for all your help! Quote
AKheathen Posted March 12, 2010 Report Posted March 12, 2010 yah, that sprocket went from waved, to skipping over. the problem with running that chain is that i gaurantee the sprocket has streatched it out, and as you put force on it, the streatched chain will only put force on 1 roller at a time and once again wear down the sprocket fast. the best thing that would happen is a chain break. i baught my chain on ebay for like $30 shipped. it's a race driven and has high tesil strength. so far, it has performed awesome over the past year, which is far better than i expected. check your swingarm bearings, too. grab the rear grab and jerk it side to side to see play in the pivot bearings Quote
White97Banshee Posted March 12, 2010 Author Report Posted March 12, 2010 Maybe I'll have to just bite it and get a new chain as well. How many links should I get for a 13/41 setup or just stock length in general? And I don't really know much about chains other than there's o-ring and non o-ring, and x-ring chains? What's a good one for dune riding? Quote
zachmw Posted March 12, 2010 Report Posted March 12, 2010 mine does the same thing in tree shots. i found sand being packed between the sprocket and chain causing it to skip. id bet thats what you got going on. Quote

What's a good one for dune riding? I recomend DID X ring chain, it is a decent chain for what it costs if it is properly cared for. I have never had a problem with one. For your gearing with a stock swingarm it should be around 102 or 104 links long. Quote
bbcmudtruck Posted March 13, 2010 Report Posted March 13, 2010 +1 for checking your axle bearings. It could be pulling the axle sideways and binding on the sprocket. Quote
