My Rebel 500 manual says to adjust the tension with the bike on the side stand FYI. It’ll be a lot different if you have the rear wheel off the ground.

Short, sweet, and to the point. Thank you so much!!!

@Rob_Blur666 20 дней назад

Best video by far!!! All the other ones over complicate the task

Thank you so much Arches Mechanic! You saved me a visit to my dealer and now have 100 dollars in my pocket! The other 100 is going to a stand :D

Brilliant, thank you! That's how you do a how to video!

@mcjaypee 4 года назад

You should probably mention to check wheel/tire clearance as well once the locknuts are back on and tight. Those position indicators on the fork are not that accurate since the large silver bracket holding the axle has a lot of free play in it, like Mr. Plow said below.

@MrSalcedoKinder 3 года назад

I just found your channel and subscribed. Good content.

@cosminpopescu92 5 лет назад

Problem is that the right-side position indicator moves all over the place when the axle nut is loose so you have very low accuracy when centering the wheel.

@cletus1954 2 года назад

You could leave the axle nut just loose enough to hold the indicator in place.

@jackson9195 3 года назад

Thanks for the video, but doesn’t the bike have to be on the side stand with weight on the back wheel to get your proper tension adjustment

@ArchesMechanic 3 года назад

That’s a good question. I’m not exactly sure. I think you could make adjustments afterwards if you had to. Mine didn’t seem to tighten up much after it was dropped.

@californiahikebike 3 года назад

@markstone2138 2 месяца назад

So is chain play measured by only pushing up? Or by pushing up, then down?

@FWSBASH Год назад

Hey there! first off thanks for the video! Second, mind if I ask what kind of stand do you use for this?

It was a viper I got off Amazon and modified.

@jayrock497 Год назад

Great vid, is it safe to say there’s no need to use a torque wrench?

You should. I just don’t know the torque specs and I’m good at calculating torque by feel

@charlottesimpson1009 Год назад

The right side of mine won’t tighten any more but the left side is very easy to move and the chain is still very loose. Do you have any tips? Is it fine to just tighten on the left?

@ArchesMechanic Год назад

Make sure they’re even. Use the bolts at the back to walk it in/out. You may need to replace the chain. It could have stretched

@ahmadabboud1535 5 лет назад

Which stand did you use to lift the motorcycle off the floor?

Ahmad Abboud just search motorcycle lift and they will pop up to order online

@@ArchesMechanic doesn't answer which one you use...??? there are hundreds online and not all will work with a 300/500 Rebel.

I'd just like to add, you don't have to take the two lock nuts completely off.

@PhillipReina 4 года назад

@joeestrada1491 Год назад

The nut opposite of the axel nut, is that significant? Does that need to be move / tighten loosened?

@ArchesMechanic Год назад

No. It can stay where it’s at

mine moves when i try loosening the right one... is that bad

@rickstark1917 2 года назад

What type / brand of stand is best for the Rebel 300/500?

@ArchesMechanic 2 года назад

I liked the viper ones I had but I went with the cheapest option. Better to spend a few extra bucks and get one that you done have to modify

A crescent wrench has no business here. Did you torque the nuts down?

@nicsmiley2265 Год назад

The Allen slot on the opposite side of my axle nut keeps spinning. Am I doing something wrong or do I just need a large Allen key to tighten it?

Use an Allen to hold it in place

You mentioned 1-1.5 inches of free play. 1-1.5 inches from where? Where do I start the measurements? Sorry... I’m new to all of this

@ArchesMechanic 5 лет назад

Sparta Gomez from top to bottom. Lift the chain up and measure from up to down. That is the free play that’s in it

@okanaganrider4332 3 года назад

I disagree. It seems that you misunderstand what slack means. Your chain looks way too tight.

1 inch of freeplay will look pretty tight. How can you be so certain he is incorrect without measuring tape?
