    Pretty ingenious!! Maybe a bit high tech for such a low tech procedure, but well thought out. I always just counted the number of turns for each side, you can't rely on the stamped marks on the swingarm for alignment.

    I'm working on a wireless drive that also doubles as a cell phone interrupter for the surrounding motor vehicles.

    While I wasn't aware adjusting the chain on a non SSSA bike was that hard, I do in fact admire & appreciate the inginuity. Nicely done. :thumbsup:

    After I read KC's reply, I feel it necessary to apologize to the inventor for being somewhat disrespectful. Although I cannot see having such a tool myself, I am sure that there are those who would find it helpful, particularly those who experiment with different final drive gearing.

    Thanks, KC, for keeping me humble. :smile:
