Last week I checked my chain before my ride on saturday, seemed a tiny bit loose but ok to ride, looking back she was a little on the dry side. Anyway after the end of the ride, did about 600km and the chain was retardedly loose. I could touch the swingarm and still had plenty of slack left. I've got maybe 1/3 of an inch left of adjustment I can tighten it by, but the nut is very starting to strip a little and with the chain being as loose as it is (was also too hot to touch bare-hand when I rolled in), and that it's the one that came on my bike(put about 14000km since I baught it a year ago). I got back later into town for the long weekend and couldnt make it to a bike shop to pick-up a new chain(also too busy working during the week). Sprockets look ok I think so I just really want to get another chain on so I can ride the next 3 days without worrying if my chain is gonna let go and whip a hole in the bottom of my case or lock my rear wheel. I'll pay extra over what it cost for a new one if somebody has one kicking around, or pay a fair price to get a used chain that still has some life in it. If anybody can help me out it'd be very much appreciated and I'm sure I can throw a 6 or 12 pack their way or put a tank of gas in their tank if I can get her in tip-top shape ready to spend the weekend in the twisty roads, lol. Let me know, thanks.
