  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

76 Chain Tensioner Rubbing - Help

Hi,

I feel stupid asking this, but. . .

I've got a 76 WR 250 and the chain rubs on the outboard side of the chain tensioner.

How do I adjust this properly?

Is it ok to let it rub?

----------------------

The chain is a new DID non-oring, sprockets 11/53 (stock), tire is aligned in swingarm (same
distance from tire to swing arm on both sides).

Chain tensioner is the type with two black rubber wheels about 1" diameter.

It looks like I need to move the tensioner about 1/8" outboard to eliminate rubbing.
You can hear the master link "click" every time it comes around.

Thanks for any advice.

Thor
