What up guys,
I know it's been awhile since I posted and Im sorry about that. I got a flat tire last week and Im working on replaying the tire, I say working because I took the wheel off to late to take it to the dear. Im kind of piss because when I was takeing the wheel off my bike off I scrack the wheek on the rear break. Anyway when I was taking off my rear wheel the spacer fall out and I didn't see which way it fit on, So I was wondering how it fit? Also I was wonder if $70 is a good deal on a rear tire?
Thank, Chris
Take your tire to a shop and have them fix it. They will know which way the spacer goes. And yes $70 is a good deal for a tire, and what kind of tire is it anyway?
it also depends on the tire.... and if its the proper size.
I already took the wheel off im just waitting till tueday when the suzuki dealer open so I can replays the tire. The size of the tire is 130/70/17. Im not moveing up or down in the tire, it's basicly the stock tire. So I should just ask the dealer which why the spacer gose?
Yes or you can get on a parts diagram and see if that tells you.
or, what I used to do when rebuilding stuff that I wasn't paying attention when I was taking it apart (i.e. when I was 16) just look for wear indications as to which way it was facing.
Dunno how much that can help....
or you could take a pic and post it and I am sure someone would be glad to help.
I think I know how it fit together, I look at it for awhile and look at the wear. There is a big side and a small side, the big side has a groove on it that fit in the bearing plus the big side covers the bearing. Im still going check with my dealer to make sure Im right. Thank you everyone for your help and idea.
Will I got my new tire on the rim and put it back on the bike, I think I ajusted the chain ajuster set right but Im kind of worryed tho because the chain was bounsing around alot when I had the bike on the stand running it in 5th gear, is that normal?

Don't run your bike in gear on the stand.
WHY?
Dose it only look like that when it's on the stand?
hmm...well the reason you dont want to run the bike on the centerstand is that if it were to come of the center stand our bike would finally be consederided a rocket(the bike would shoot forward damaging it and anything in its path)
So yes it normal for the chain to bounce a bit, to help you should clarify a quantity of bounce(like 2 inches or whatever).
With the bike on the sidestand, you should have a total of about an inch of total play on the chain, check this about 3 inches behind the clutch cover, or techinically half way between the front and rear sprocket. Just a tip for you, check the chain in various spots by moving the bike and then rechecking, I have found that someimes you tighten in a loose spot and when you move the bike you find that now it way tight in certain areas(this is also a sign that you need to replace the chain).

You also don't want to risk catching anything in the chain (like long hair or your sleeve, etc.) or between the chain and sprocket. Ouch.
I checkl and rode the bike today and it look good, Im going have someone check over it. thinkthanks everyone
