Chain guide wearing on swingarm

[black sunshine]

Anyone have a fix for this? I know that the one that is on there is original but it is still in one piece and the damn thing has worn through the oil seal and some type of sleeve that is under it.

 

Is something missing/broke on mine or is this the design? The bore on the guide is about a half-inch bigger than the swinger tube, and the chain spins this plastic guide constantly against the swingarm. Is that how it is supposed to work?

 

Seems shitty to me, will a new OEM setup be suffice or has some other manufacturer improved this setup?

 

thanks for any input!

yea just make sure you get that new one on there right. the ones ive used dont fit the swingarm snug and ive had to use the sleeve. just a heads up.

I'll have to order a new sleeve if that's the case 'cause the stocker sawed thru the old one!!! Found a cascade slider from RMATV for $25, sound right? I'll have to order a bearing kit for the pivot cause I need a new oil seal, i hope they carry sleeves as well.

 

Did my OEM roller malfunction or was that the way it was designed? If it was intended to function like that, it is the worst thing on the bike, IMO.

Got a couple sets of these if needed.... Needle bearings too.
