gonna put this here cause I don't know where else it would go... :0
Question1. There is a white plastic roller that I assume the chain is supposed to ... well... roll over. Mine is loose on the swingarm. Is that normal?
Question2. How many miles do you guys get out of your chains if you use the bike as a casual rider?
My chain is going to be replaced as... well... it's the origional 29 year old chain and it's got 11,000 miles on it. It recently showed signs of serious stretch and I'll feel comfortable with it replaced, but how long can I expect the new one to last?
(unbelievable, I know, but in 18 years of riding I have never owned a bike with a chain)
