master link knocking

Post by Eric and Rheva Lewis » Mon Apr 23, 2001 3:14 am

Greetings all, Recently my master link on my chain has been hitting the cover of the counter-sprocket when it passes through the area. When I had a look, it seems the pins of that particular link are sticking out further than the others and hitting the cover. It probably won't cause any real damage but it sure isn't a pleasant sound. Any suggestions on remedying this nuisance? It's an RK 520 chain, not a cheap one either so getting another chain is not my first choice. TIA, Eric A 8 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

I'm replying to my own post here---can I turn the master link around and face it inside toward to tire? It seems there is more room on the inside of the chain route through the counter shaft sprocket area. Your thoughts on this matter will be greatly appreciated. Eric A8

Sure you can face it inside. Make sure the clip is put on in such a direction that when it hits things as it is going around in circles it does not get knocked off. It other words, the closed end of the clip gets hit and not the open end. Pat Austin TX
