cam Chain
« on: June 02, 2015, 06:36:25 AM »
After checking I can't seem to find a way to check the cam chain. Is there any measurement or way to check the existing chain? I have the head off now and it would be a good time. I don't want to split the case, so if I replace it I'll have to use a non endless type chain. I would rather not do that if I can prove the existing chain is within limits.

what bike?
are you wanting to set the tensioner, or check for overall stretch?
