chain

has anyone had a leak from cam chain tensioner? can the tensioner be removed without the chain jumping? im hoping leak is only on the sealing washer, any info be great! thanks

Just like it says. Discuss. Is it possible? Can it even be done without altering the wheelbase? I'd like to know everyone's thoughts on this matter. Let's see how many people even respond constructively. By the way I'm totally in a trollololololing mood right now, but seriously... Can it...

I'm sure I am probably beating a dead horse here, but which chain is better? The D.I.D ERV3 or the EK MVXC? I want to do a 520 kit, but Im not sure if I want to do the 41 tooth rear. The bike wheelies a ton for me already, and I don't really want it to wheelie more. :cool: Also, what...

I know they make these for other models, but was wondering if they have one out for the Pani yet? Cruising some go to sites and google yielded absolutely nothing.

I lubed my chain the night before and it dripped on to the exhaust. I didn't notice till I was at the track and I had no cloth there. Now its kindof etched into the exhaust. Not a huge deal but id like to get it off.

I'm in great need of a chain tool to tighten the tension on the chain on my 1199. if anyone in or near Lawrenceville Georgia has one of the tools that I can borrow rent or buy today tomorrow or Saturday you'd be doing me a huge favor please let me know asap

Brand new. My R is a race bike and I have the brand new stock chain and rear sprocket for sale. Make me an offer. Joel

I'm having the 41T sprocket change but the mechanic is proposing a 520 chain - is there any drawbacks with a 520?

Does this sound about right? They also said they would charge around $100 for the install.

So has anyone here had the sprocket & chain kit upgrade done? I have ordered mine they said it will mainly benefit track riding, it has 2 teeth more on the rear and will cost about $300. What's the verdict, worth it? Oh it comes with a map to suit the change.

Quick question, has anyone checked/counted their chain links ? Now before you suggest that I need to get out more :p I'm not trying to beat the winter withdrawals by randomly counting Panigale parts :rolleyes: I normally change the final drive gearing and I was doing a little research to this...

Hey guys, I just lubed the chain on the stand (like normal) and the bike came up with Speed Sensor warning. I rode around a little and it didn't go out. I assumed it was something to do with the TCS so did a search on here and came close (Burnout thread) which says it will turn off after...

Which lube are you guys using?? I hate lubes that either go everywhere when you apply them... or go everywhere when you ride....

How do I adjust the chain slack?

Reading the user manual I noticed that to adjust the chain tension Ducati suggests to go to a Ducati Workshop. If anyone is interested I would like to explain the procedure that I followed today. At first, measure the chain tension according to user manual procedure. I think that is better a...

Where exactly do you make the 50-52mm measurement (Fig. 170 Owner ´s Manual) ??? You are supposed to take the measurement mid distance between the centers of the front and rear sprockets. Problem is that the center of the front sprocket is not visible. Thanks !!!

Hello everyone, First post and already looking for opinions. Getting ready to order a 520 Chain Conversion and wanted to know if anyone has already done it. If so, what gearing did you select, how do you like it and do you wish you would've gone with a different gearing? Thank you in advance...

After the 1st service, notice the chain is hitting the exhaust, a further look, noticed the swingarm pinbolts were completely loose, Shame on dealer. Went and got the chain tool thinking it's a quick fix, that eccentric hub just won't budge, so before I cause serious damage to myself or the...

It kind of annoys me that the chain guard is so stubby and does nothing to keep gunk from slinging up to the underside of the tail plastics. Anyone know of a longer chain guard that'll actually cover over the sprocket so that when the chain wraps around it wont sling crap all over the fairing?

Finally got my AFAM quick-change 520 kit, going to put it on this week! I weighed it, it's 6.50 lbs. for the chain and both sprockets. I'll weigh the stock parts when they come off and see how much of a difference it makes, hoping for at least a pound! If it's at least a pound, that will put...
