Kazuma 110 chain slap?
My sons falcon 110 has been making a horrible clacking noise lately and I think it's the chain. I loosened the bolts and tightened the large bolt that tightens the chain but it didnt stop the noise. I can see the chain bouncing around alot. I have added paddle tires and am not sure if it is contributing to the slap or not. I was wondering if anyone elses is having the same noise and if a chain roller somewhere could help

How much does the kid weigh? Have you look at the shock or how much the rear dips? I had the same problem with mine. Also, look at the bolts, my stripped out and didn't hold well. Put a lock washer on the bolts. Is the chain guard bent? I hit a stump and bent mine up a few times? Keep me posted. SEADAWG

Hi BigJon, Id assume the paddle tires have increased the force on the chain and its stretched a bit. I also would think that the pulses of the paddle tires would cause some extra noise out of the chain too. All the chinese quads that I have looked at run the chain close to the swingarm with no rubbing blocks to both deaden the noise and keep the chain from wearing into the swingarm too. I would make sure the chain isnt to loose or tight. As long as it isnt tossing the chain you should be alright.

Wow this was a while back!
I finally figured out how to tighten the chain but now its alittle hazy.
I know there were like 2 different screws that affected the tightening of the chain.
I just played around until the chain was tighter.
It still makes a slapping noise but I think its from the paddles he now has.
I like the idea if the pvc swing arm protector.
We are going to Pismo in a few weeks. I'll fashion something then.
