Chain Adjuster Bolts
Hi, Anyone got any different chain adjusters or chain adjuster bolts to the standard Honda ones, I have been on fleebay can only find them for the Sp1 nothing at all for the Storm 

Re: Chain Adjuster Bolts
Your right there is nothing out there for the Storm. The only way you will get some with standard swigarm is if you design and make your own.

As Carl stated, there is nothing out there; I have looked high and low, substitued other bikes with same adjusters (early Blade, 600 F3,.....) and there is NOTHING to be had. I had my adjusters powdercoated black and added a Ti M10 flat washer between the rear of the adjuster bracket and bolt so at least now there is zero slack in the set-up, works much nicer now.....

Re: Chain Adjuster Bolts
Thanks Fellas for the replies, Its funny they do loads of colours for Sp1 inc titanium and none for the storm 

Re: Chain Adjuster Bolts
There's a niche market for someone with the engineering skills. I don't understand why pro bolt or someone hasn't come up with something in various anodized colours. Even the same design would be nice but made on a more chunky/heavy duty side. Not sure if the wheel spindle would be long enough though but IIRC the swingarm spindle is longer so may be an option. Or is that the other way around

Re: Chain Adjuster Bolts

Carl, the spindle bolt wasn't long enough and I used a swing arm spindle kindly given to me to make mine work... also had to make new spacers and add one to the caliper side to account for the width of the adjusters on the inside of the swing arm that were taken away.
They seem to work fine but should I make more I would change a couple of things.. also thinking of a different design altogether.
Why ask... sometime you just go to do it and find out?

Re: Chain Adjuster Bolts
I highly doubt they will be aftermarket though.
