Okay, supposed to go riding tomorrow and was changing the oil, etc today on my 1985 200X. Decided to adjust the cam chain tensioner as it was it was getting a little loud and it hadnt been adjusted in a long time.
So it gets warmed up, I loosed the big nut (the bolt on top I did not mess with, that stayed tight and turned with the big lower nut) waited a few seconds and it just got LOUDER. I tightened it back down and did it again. Same thing. Still loud!!
How can it get WORSE?! What can I do to fix the problem. The chain isnt that old at all maybe 1.5 years or so, but not many rides. Not enough to have it streched or anything thats for sure.
Someone please help me asap so I can go riding tomorrow!!
Thanks!
