I think it's time to suck it up and have it professionally installed. Not all of us are cut out to be mechanics.

What are you going to lose next?
 
Make sure that the wheel and sproket are dead center??

What type of master link you using clip or rivit. Only use rivit.

Don't use the chain center marks on the adjusters, use a micrometer or string to make sure it is centered.

What the hell did you have done and by who??

Did you get the engine back in the right place after you welded the shifter??

Did you check the mounts to make sure they are not bent??

Have it done by an expert and you will not have to have it done 6 times. It is going to cost you lots more if you keep going on like this. I told you where to go and who to have a look at the bike. Did you call??

Even I'm starting to feel sorry for him now. I think we all had a friend like him growing up. Nice but dopey kid gets a new (and very expensive) bicycle for Christmas. By April the seat is tore up, handle bars slightly bent and half the gears no longer work.

By May the front wheel is bent, a pedal is missing, brakes no longer function, it's been spray painted a different color and the chain keeps falling off.

June rolls around and he just loses it somewhere...not really sure where it went?

Next day your mom is yelling upstairs that Kris is here to see you. You go to the front door:
"Doooooooooood! Can I borrow your bike, my mom wants me to run to the store to pick up some bread".

You:

wow.gif
HELL NO!

Mom:
"How dare you be so rude to your friend! Of course you can borrow it Kris".

Few hours pass and Kris is back at the door:

"Doooooooooood! You ain't gonna believe what happened! I was in front of Krispy Kreme's and........."
