You need to split the crankcase to get at the tensioner as it's bolted to the top crankcase. How, you don't need to remove the barrels or cylinder head. Undo the top securing bolts, then urn it upside down and remove the rest. You also need to withdraw the primary shaft via the oil pimp side first, as well as removing the gearchange bits and the clutch. Best get a manual.

I was referring to the snobs of gasket goo interested sump; nothing to worry about. The particles of alloy are a different matter. It's more likely that the cam chain tensioner (the horseshoe part) is sticking causing the camchain to rub the sides of the camchain tunnel.

Don't worry about the specks of rubber, it's just excess gasket material.

Sorry to raise your hopes but after seeing the photo you just sent me, I realised we were talking about different bikes. My cards are for a 400.
I've got a right load of omelette on my face now.
Once again, so sorry.

Suzuki Gs125S. Parts are cheap and plentiful (exhaust system £49 from MandP) they're also very easy to work on and very reliable.

Warm the rubbers with a hairdryer to make them more resilient. You really don't want to split them. Bear in mind not only are they old but its cold as well

I've got some second hand ones if you want. You can have them for just the postage.
