I was wondering if the chain adjustment hash marks on the swingarm bearing carrier are suppose to line up? Mine have been uneven ever since I bought this bike. I have adjusted the chain tension twice and cannot get them to line up. The bike seems to track straight. Any ideas?

 

I've never got them to line up, actually you can't even really see the one on the right side of mine.

 

mine have never lined up either. I usually take a measurement from my axle to the swingarm mount to make sure I got it right. wish I could afford a new swingarm and go back to the honda system. Only chain tensioning system ever to prove flawless.

Mine is a little off also.

 

Yep mine don't line up either. PITA.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

 

I always measure the adjusting bolts till they are equall lengths in and the make sure the carrier is tight against them, measure chain slack and tighten everything up! The hash marks are off on mine too.
