Update on the "Norbert" camchain tensioner.
http://www.ls-650.de/community/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1168393837Short translation for those who are interested:
Price 146 Euros ( at 1.20 = 175US )
The oem tensioner can be used but the amount of travell will be extended. For those familiar with the inside of the engine, the brackets, laser-cut to 0.01 mm, are fitted to excisting tapped holes in the crankcase.
Normal wear on the chain will have to replace the chain at 20k Km. With this layout the expected life of the chain is estimated at 50 to 70k Km.
The adjustment with removed clutchcover has to be made around 20k and once adjusted the tensioner can not fall apart in 2 pieces anymore. He will make 15 sets.
