Frog Chorus - rivet! rivet!

<< < (2/3) > >>

Trigger:
The master link needs to be hollow on the ends, do you have this type ?

MrDavo:
Yes, but I did just have to nip in the garage and check!

I note that the parts book lists both split link and rivet links for the OEM chain, it seems to depend on what make you got. The sprockets are original 18/48, with the ring fitted to stop the chain getting fouled up in the spindle.

It was a few links too long, luckily I did have a decent splitter in my toolbox.

K2-K6:
Regarding your original posting,  I think these sealed chains are alot better than the old type, I know it may trouble some people about originality but I'd always run new type if it's an option.

The riveter,  it's worth using something like coppaslip on both the former threads and the interface with the rivet to help get a clean fold over of material, if that makes sense.

Trigger:
Found a half decent vid on how to do >>>  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygJZuzjvIMY

MrDavo:
Thanks for the info, I'd not thought of Coppaslip, but I'll use it now.

Does anyone here use the stock CB750 oiler from the centre of the sprocket? It is fitted to mine, I put it back but left the adjuster tightened right up so no oil comes out. I reckoned I'd rather be in control of how lubed my chain is.
