Hello everyone,
I recently purchased what I thought to be a turn key custom Busa.... Turns out, that wasn't exactly the case. I have been slowly working to get this bad boy up to par, so I can go out riding and know everything is done up right. Anyways, there are a couple of questions I have for you all at the moment. The left handle bar has a squeak whenever pressure is applied/released. I cannot figure out what is causing this and have failed to find anything on the internet pertaining to strictly the handle bars. I'll attach a short video showing what i'm talking about.
My second question... How do I adjust the rear chain on this bike? I've never dealt with a single sided swing arm. Also, haven't found any threads online about adjusting one with a setup like this. The front chain seems to be fine on tightness, but the rear one is too loose for my liking. I'm not certain if somehow the rear section turns, to shorten and lengthen the tire placement, but that would also slightly raise/lower the rear of the bike, if that is the case.
If you need better pictures of specific parts of the bike, just let me know and i'll do my best to get what you need.
Thanks everyone for your help, and by the way, its nice to be a part of the community.
