How To: Chain & Sprockets on 99 SV650

put the tool over the ground down pin and use the 14mm wrench to tighten it down

thread in the pin pusher and give it several turns. you'll feel it move easily @ 1st then suddenly tighten up. when this happenes back the pusher off and swap pins

put the largest of the smaller pins in the tool. you'll use this to push the pin all the way through the chain link

use the master link to hook the new and old chain together and pull the old out and thread the new through.......we had a little trouble with this since the sprocket we got were the stock 525 size but the chain was of the 520 variety :wtf

so while he went to the store to get the right parts i swapped the front sprocket and swapped out the rear shock for a penseke. guess what the next pictorials about??? i dunno' maybe a shock swap :laughing

once we got the right chain things are back on track. loop the chain around the sprockets and connect with the master link. make sure that if you're using an o-ring chain to put the o-rings on the master link and use the white grease that comes with the chain

place the front part of the master link on the pins and use the tool to get each pin started in its new hole

now use the press attachment to fully press the outer plate on, be careful not to over tighten it. you'll get a instant tight spot if you do.

now put the riviter pin back in and spread out the ends of the protruding pins. it doesn't take a lot of force to spread them enough to keep the chain plate on.

torque the front sprocket nut to 65 N/m and bend the lock washer over 1 side of the nut

after that use the allens on the back of the swing arm to adjust the chain and tighten the axle nut to 60 N/m and replace the cotter pin :staRang
 
Great write up :thumbup

I already added it too :p
 
Very nice.:thumbup

When pressing the masterlink together, I first measure the width of a link of the chain with a dial caliper and press the plates together to the same measurement. The space between is critical for the o-rings to live a long life.
