it moved some maybe it didnt go far enough I talked to the guy I bought the shee from and he said this is the first time adjusters have been messed with maybe its just going to go dry

if it's the stock length chain it will fit for sure. just loosen up your adjusters most of the way. loosen your axle carrier nuts and bolts (top nut is 17mm, bottom nut is 14mm) then push on your axle carrier towards the front of the bike this will move the rear sprocket closer to the front and give you more chain slack then it will go on with ease, then adjust your chain accordingly making sure that there is a little slack in the chain. it's best to do this with the rear tires off of the ground. do you have a owners manual or a clymers manual, if so it will tell you step by step what to do? if not get a clymers it will come in very handy in the future.
