Title: Re: Shortening a chain Post by: IT200 on February 04, 2005, 05:34:50 PM The original chains on most quads did not have a master link. They were made to size. I suggest you replace the chain if you have lost all your adjustment. It must really be worn out. Check with www.rockymountainatv.com they have good prices.
Title: Re: Shortening a chain Post by: 96 warrior on February 05, 2005, 07:23:09 AM what size is the chain on a warrior?
Title: Re: Shortening a chain Post by: IT200 on February 05, 2005, 09:18:48 AM count the links ot get the length and the warrior uses a "520" type chain
Title: Re: Shortening a chain Post by: Mars on February 05, 2005, 03:02:42 PM Should be a 520 o-ring with 98 links.
If you do not replace your sprockets your just waisting time and money. Your worn out sprokets will wipe out the new chain in a few rides. If your tight on $$, a HD non o-ring chain and new steel sprokets will cost less than a top 520 chain alone.
