Which Spanner do I need?

Just need to adjust my chain but my bike has no tool kit.

Which spanner do I need, # 4 or # 5???

Service honda didn't know.

Thanks!

 

#5 would be what your looking for, and the extension/cheater bar.

 

^^^ What he said, the little spanner is for the shock, but you really don't need the extension/cheater bar for adjusting the chain but diffently need it for adjusting the shock, just loosen the bearing holder pinch bolt and the tool should do the rest, I check/adjust mine every 500 miles.

 

Thanks guys.

 

I was able to get a universal spanner wrench from my Honda dealer that did both the chain and the shock. It cost around $10.

 

FYI, I ordered #5 and got the wrong part, they sent part 4. If you have a 98 and you need the chain tension spanner, request part 81235-001, this is the proper part number on bikebandit.

I got that f***ing part 4 in the mail and as a result had to pay someone else to tighten my chain before an impromptu trip!! Oh well, now it's all settled and the right one is one the way.

Also FYI, I found it impossible to convert the part 4 spanner to function as a part 5 chain spanner, despite using a dremel tool and lots of patience.
