  Description

Chain Monkey is the world’s first tool designed to help you set the tension on your motorcycle’s drive chain. The task of tensioning a chain can be a tedious and time consuming task, especially on motorcycles. But not anymore.

By using Chain Monkey, anyone can set their chain tension quickly, easily and with minimal knowledge required. From new riders through to experienced mechanics, Chain Monkey will simplify the task, optimise performance and save you money through its revolutionary, patented design.

How to use your Chain Monkey

  • Step 1:Using your motorcycle’s manufacturer manual, specify how much slack your chain requires in mm or inches. Measure the size of your chain and use the table to identify your required Chain Monkey setting.
  • Step 2:Align bottom of domed nut with required setting line and adjust circular stop until it touches the orange base.
  • Step 3:Hook on to chain and tighten until circular stop touches the orange base.
  • Step 4:Tighten chain until all slack is removed while centralising wheel.
  • Step 5:Remove from chain. Required tension will now be set.

FAQ:

  • How do you check motorcycle chain tension ?
    • The Chain Monkey can be used to not only set tension, but also to check it:
      Hook the Chain Monkey onto the chain.
      Align the bottom of the domed nut to the required setting line, and adjust the circular stop until it touches the orange base.
      Undo the Chain Monkey and hook onto the chain, then tighten the centre bolt until the circular stop touches the orange base. If you are unable to tighten the Chain Monkey to this setting, your chain is too tight, and if there is still slack present, your chain is too loose.
  • How tight is a motorcycle chain supposed to be ?
    • Tell-tale signs that suggest your chain tension isn’t set correctly include:
      A ‘wurring’ sound as you accelerate
      Knocking between gear changes
      The chain looking under strain when you sit on the bike
  • Why does my chain need to be set to the correct tension ?
    • Setting your chain to the correct tension will optimise performance and power delivery, prolong chain and sprocket life and help to provide a smoother ride.
