Well I spent yesterday fitting the following: Tsubaki Chain SuperSprox Rear Sproket OEM Front Sprocket LightTech Chain adjuster Gilles Axle Nut I had to buy the following to complete this job Chain Riveter Breaker Bar 19 mm spanner for the riveter 32 mm socket for the axel nut Other tool required ( I already had) Torque wrench (did daddy and ickle one) Socket and spanner set Verniers and steel rule Hammer and vice Dremel to say the least I spend quite a lot of my pocket money! This is the first time I've done this so took me a couple of hours, but this was mainly due to me cleaning every part before refitting, I was also on my own. It was snowing as well so did the job in a heated conservatory, warm but limited space!. My main fear was removal of the front sprocket but this was easy, one foot on the rear brake and a 600mm beaker bar and boom it was off. My main problem was the sprocket cover!, there is so little clearance there with pipes and wires wrapped into the covers this took me half an hour alone. Also peening the master link on the chain was a bit of a ball ache as I did not have a proper tool as it was a solid rivet, so used two heavy hammers (a sledge as a back weight and a club hammer) Would I do it again, yes but only if I had a proper riveting tool, but take this into consideration, honda will fit customer supplied chain and sprockets for £60. On the other hand would they have cleaned everything as well as me? BTW the Blade rides like silk! I will post my 'progress' videos and pictures soon I just need to remove the grease marks off the conservatory carpet before the Mrs goes Ape!!
Well done I did my brothers 636 Ninja. Although I used a long bar covered in rags through the back wheel against the swingarm to remove the front sprocket. Only took us about 1.5 hours although we did borrow a proper chain breaker and riveting tool which i do recommend. Also when putting on the new front sprocket use the old chain so you don't stretch the new one.
