How to Adjust Your Dirt Bike Chain CORRECTLY (Stop Wear & Improve Suspension!)

What's up, Chasing Roost crew! Cody here with a crucial maintenance tutorial: How to properly adjust your dirt bike chain. Getting your chain tension wrong isn't just a small mistake – it can lead to RAPID wear on your sprockets, chain slider, and chain guide. A chain that's too loose chews up parts, while a chain that's too TIGHT puts massive stress on your countershaft bearing and seal, and can even make your suspension feel stiff and bind up! Forget the old "three fingers" rule – modern bikes need precise adjustment based on the manufacturer's specs. In this video, we break down the exact steps to get it right: What You'll Learn: Why correct chain slack is CRITICAL for performance and longevity. How to find the correct chain slack measurement for YOUR bike (Hint: Check your manual!). Where and how to measure slack accurately (using calipers or a go/no-go gauge like the 405 Mods tool). (Optional) See visually how chain tension changes with suspension travel. Step-by-step guide: Loosening the axle, using adjuster bolts, and the "rag trick" to seat the axle blocks. The MOST accurate way to ensure perfect rear wheel alignment (beyond just the swingarm marks). The importance of using a TORQUE WRENCH on your axle nut (and finding the right spec). The correct order for tightening everything back up. Quick check for loose sprocket bolts. When to suspect your chain might be worn out. We demonstrate on a KTM, but the principles apply to most dirt bikes (we even mention snail-cam adjusters!). Whether you ride motocross, enduro, or trails, keeping your chain adjusted is key.
