Just need advice what to do about the chain on a 2000 Scram 400 2x4. I've tightened it up twice, and the things loose again. I ride it pretty hard, but is this normal? I was thinking about getting a new heavy duty o-ring chain, and rear sprocket. Would this solve my problem? Any advice is appreciated![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

it's normal to tighten it just grease it and tighten as need it

 

Are you tightening it to the proper specs, as far as play is concerned, and torqueing the axle bolts to the right LBS?

Check the wear of both the chain and F/R sprockets as well.

 

get a chain tensioner it will do wonders HpD sells them.
if you jump your quad any you will needit to keep from breaking it.

 

Thanks for your guys help! Yeah az400l I would have everything tightened to specs, take it out riding for a couple days, and each time its always loose again. Thanks bermbanger, I'll get one of those chain tensioners. How's the quality of the stock Polaris chains? Should I replace it with something more durable? Also, bermbanger, how much weight do you save ditching the oil injector?

 

not really sure excactly but i have my quad down to rite below 400 now i just didnt trust the oil injection.
1 reason why? friend of mine broke his throttle cable i was helping him fix it we had to take the cover off oil injection to get cable back together. his oil cable was only holding by about 5 or 6 strands so......
i removed mine as soon as possible.
