was thinking of one of these, saw em on their main site, read some good and bad stories on em somewhere, any one here have an oppinion on them?
sure beats $140 odd genuine, though the one in the bike seems fine for now.

I'm lost.
What is the actual benefit of using one of these things.
My GSXR moter sees sustained revs of 9000+ without any noyicable problems.

Cheers

there is only so far that a autocam chain adjuster will go as far as i have been told and if yyou read the ebay description, it pretty much covers it

what he said and also there is no chance of backlash cos they are fixed and dont rely on a spring
