FAQs

Is this chain tensioner pad suitable for motocross or enduro bikes?

This specific model is designed as a universal fit for *trials* motorcycles. While some trials components can be adapted, it's not recommended for motocross or enduro use without confirming specific compatibility and potential modifications.

What material is the tensioner pad made from?

The pad is made from durable materials engineered to withstand the demands of off-road riding, providing a balance of toughness and flexibility.

How often should I check the condition of the tensioner pad?

It is recommended to inspect the chain tensioner pad for wear and tear during your regular motorcycle maintenance checks, typically after every few rides or as part of cleaning your chain and sprockets.

Can I paint this red tensioner pad to a different color?

Painting the pad is not recommended as it may affect the material properties and durability. The red color is integral to the product's finish.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the retailer or Apico's official warranty policy for specific details regarding the warranty period and coverage for this product.

Does this pad come with mounting hardware?

This product is typically sold as the pad itself. It is designed to use existing OEM mounting hardware. Always refer to the product packaging or listing for exact contents.

Troubleshooting

Chain tension is still too loose or too tight after installation.

Ensure the pad is correctly seated and all mounting bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications. Double-check that no other components in the chain tensioning system are binding or damaged. Adjustments to the chain itself may be necessary.

Pad does not seem to fit correctly.

Verify that you have the correct model for your specific trials motorcycle. While universal, some minor variations in swingarm design might exist. Consult your motorcycle's service manual for precise fitment details or contact Apico support.

Excessive noise from the chain area.

Inspect the pad for any signs of wear or damage. Ensure the chain is properly lubricated and that the pad is not rubbing against other parts of the swingarm or chain.

Ensure all mounting hardware is securely tightened according to your motorcycle's service manual specifications.

Compatibility: This is a universal part for trials motorcycles.
