Ill never forget you drilling out my swing arm on my old 450 because of my lack of maintenance lol, what a mess. Now i grease those adjusters constantly. Always pumped on some good tips and tricks
I have ran an ERV3 and now an ERV7 on my 450X for just over 200 hours now. I replaced the ERV3 at 111 hours just as a precaution but it got me thinking, how do you know when you need a new chain? Side slack in the links? How much? What's your experience? Thanks
Excessive side to side movements, flattened and stiff links, a really hammered chain will even have worn off pins. Sounds like you’re good at keeping track of time/mileage that also helps.
@@ChampionAdventures Yeah the ERV3 at 111 hours had like new side to side movement and no flattened or stiff links at all, but the drivetrain is something that if it fails at 100 mph obviously can kill you, so I felt like it was insurance. I feel like these chains can easily go a few hundred hours no problem, especially under normal use. DID MOBBIN!

Thanks for both of these! Always love hearing your take on even more these basic topics. Never boring!

The 7 ounce flywheel he suggested for this bike is a must have. I love it. Thanks
