Title: PLEASE WTB Drive Chain Adjuster
Post by: UnSaniTiZ on January 31, 2008, 05:01:23 PM
So here's the story... I've been doing some maintenance on the bike, IE new drive chain, but after taking off the old one I realized the bolt on the end of the drive chain adjustor (left side) is bent. I tried to unbend it, but messed up the threads. It needs replacing. I ordered the part at the dealership, and after a week they got it, but it was bent. They ordered a replacement, and today they said they got an invoice that says the part is backordered: up to another 2 weeks. I can't wait that long; I really need the bike to be fixed, as it's already disassembled and has been taking up my parent's garage for 2 weeks. Another 2 weeks of waiting is not really an option.

So to sum up, I need the left rear drive chain adjustor (the thing inside the swingarm, with the bolt sticking out), and I need it FAST. Preferably someone local will post an offer, and I can come by and pick it up. I live in Los Angeles, and I'd be willing to drive ~100 miles just for this STUPID part. If no one local has it, I'm also willing to consider 2nd day or overnight delivery. So, does anyone have a chain adjustor they could spare? Make me an offer. I don't think the part is different for different years, but just in case, my bike is an 2004.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
HELP!!!!

Thanks,

I'll look at the grave yards today. If I find one, my cost + shipping. :)
