How to Determine When to Replace a Motorcycle Chain?
1 Answers
The tightness of the chain can be adjusted, but if it cannot be adjusted, it needs to be replaced. Alternatively, if the chain has become too long and is not adjusted in time, causing the chain and sprocket to not fit tightly and resulting in slight deformation of the chain due to wear, it should also be replaced for safety reasons. Below is more information about motorcycle chains: Classification: According to structural types, they can be divided into: motorcycle sleeve chains, motorcycle roller chains, motorcycle sealed ring chains (oil chains, further divided into O-ring sealed chains and X-ring sealed chains), and silent chains. Precautions: Regularly clean the chain and sprocket, and apply lubricating grease in a timely manner. Especially in rainy, snowy weather or muddy roads, more attention should be paid to the maintenance of the chain and sprocket to extend the chain's service life.
