Primary Chain

(1/2) > >>

oldchuffer:
Assembling my CB400F engine, is there a way to tell if the primary chain is worn?  I've no idea of mileage so wondering if i should replace it anyway, but they are a bit expensive. Any advice much appreciated.

Bryanj:
Lay it on the bench one flat side to bench, if the inner "teeth" touch its toast.
There is a Kawasaki one exactly the same but cheaper

Nurse Julie:
My knackered primary next to the new primary.

McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
As has been mentioned the Yamaha Part is cheaper at £58.25 for the primary chain from MSP.
Mine was item number 920571011 Chain,Primary drive ZX550-A1 @ £40.22 plus Vat & £8.32 shipping = £58.25.
