front chain idler question on vtwin
« on: April 09, 2015, 12:38:22 am »
On my horizontal vanny i was wondering if my clutch chain could be stable with an idler sprocket and a bolt and nut on a slotted piece of flat stock,or.....does it have to have a idler with a spring to let the chain give??

Use solid mount style, no spring.
If you quit when you're behind, you will never win.
