Chain Hitting Chain Guide, Clatter Noise!

[DenisTheMenace]

Hello oRg,

I have a DME arm on my GEN 2, sitting at 64", the arm has the chain guide on top and i have a -1 front sprocket, the chain hits the guide and chatters, the noise is annoying and ive got the chain tight, is there anything i can do to "lift" the chain off the guard up front and get rid of the chatter? Ive seen chain rollers but nothing thatll work for me!

Put the factory front sprocket back on and go up two or three teeth in the rear I can't remember, but there's situations that require the swingarm to be modified. If you're running the chain tight it will cause other problems. Experts will be along to state the obvious that I'm clueless and maybe even help you with some better advice.
