Got it on ebay, lionparts powersports part #12-0425 $72.27 shipped. Figured I'd put a new chain in with my recently received Versy tensioner Thanks again!

If you have a new chain you don't need to put the new tensioner on the outer hole, you can save that for when the new chain stretches and maxes out the stock setting.

Good idea! Get the max miles out of the original chain, the Versy is still good, install the new chain and put the Versy back in on the short hole and get two chains worth out of the second chain. You just saved 72 bucks twice, not to mention two weekends of knuckle busting to change the chain. Cheesy

That will accomplish a coupla things,, One, youll get more miles out of your dollars & it will give you time to get familiar with it before you start digging into the top end, Youll read up on little helpful hints, like drawing the side cover out on cardboard & slotting it to poke each bolt in & keep them in order.
Same is true for the head cover,,
