mc21 chain tensioner

Wed Aug 15, 2012 5:38 pm » Post: #1 » Download Post

Hi all I have what appears to be a chain tensioner under the front of the swing arm, I can’t find it on the site parts diagrams, and I suspect it is incorrectly fitted, can anybody tell me if this was a standard item and how it worked etc, or where I can get more information on its correct fitment. Thanks Dave

Sounds like you're talking about the torque link.

Plenty of posts about it if you look through the forum.

If the motor gets removed for any reason , that little arm falls down and you don't notice it that easily when refitting things etc .
As has been said before , many have been caught out by it and it is easy to bolt in place again . It helps to stop the motor from moving/ twisting
in the frame which could lead to the chain jumping off .
It caught me out too , i only noticed it as i wheeled the bike out the garage and heard the chain rubbing it - i then knew where that extra bolt went that was left in the tray Embarassed

There's no chance of your chain ever jumping off, Si! ROTFLMAO

Chain tensioner and engine rumble

Mon Aug 20, 2012 12:36 pm » Post: #8 » Download Post

Thanks to all who replied, they were a great help.
The problem was that the torque arm was nolonger attached to the rear of the engine and rubbing against the chain.
Now all correctly bolted up again and it is the most super smooth two stroke motorcycle I have ever ridden. Beautiful.

Thanks again. Dave
