Royan Enfield Himalayan - How do adjust Chain | Chain Slack adjustment for smoother gear shifts 

I’m a new owner of this horse. I must say your videos are simple, complete, honest and direct. Invaluable contribution. I feel lucky to have found it. Thank a lot Sir!

Thanks for the video. I just bought a Royal Enfield TBX 350 and from the factory the rear wheel was out of adjustment and the bike had a tendency to move to the right. Apparently the marks you have to adjust the chain do not match, so the best way to adjust the chain is the one you show in this video. Thank you very much for sharing it and greetings from Costa Rica, Central America. C. Vargas.

Hi brother, a big thank you from Sydney Australia. You’re a great teacher gave me the confidence to have a go myself. Love the videos :)

Bro, all your DIY works are great and easy for beginners like me. I'm new to himalayan bike and its helping me alot.

Thank you! This really helped me over in the US.

Thanks for taking the time to post this video -very reassuring to see how it should be done.

I have same bike, Bro I have seen other bloggers who make videos, they show how to open a nut or fork, they don't show how to fit it back, but you show it very well! Thank you so much for your diy videos. I recently changed by fork oil I have 6k kms on my bike so far

Thank you. From Thailand 🇹🇭

Your videos are really a fantastic way to learn !!!

Thank you brother your videos have helped me out here in Vietnam

Thanks for a very informative video. I have just taken delivery of a new Himalayan and was concerned that the rear wheel was out of alignment. I figured out how to correct this before I saw your vid. Now I need to know why the alignment was out on my brand new bike!

Just take my chain for the first time this was a big help thanks a lot

Great post thanks! What an inspired idea measuring bolt thread lengths for wheel straightness … 💡

Perhaps the best video I have seen on chain adjustment. Great job👍

what an amazing and simple to learn video, though i have not tried it, but feel happy now as i know how to do it. ..... please upload more

Thank you so much for this! You make it simple.

Thank you that was very helpful

Thank you very much for your very useful video about chain adjustments on a Himalayan. I have owned mine for over a year. What a fantastic motorbike. I’ve been looking for basic maintenance advice on the Himalayan. Thank you very much from Mike in North Yorkshire, UK. DO you have other videos about Himalayan maintenance. Thank you very much and best wishes.

Thnanks for this video

Muchas gracias. Muy útil. Gracias, por favor, sigue así.

Thanks Man

Your vids are far better than a workshop manual! I am in The Philippines and own a carb model which I prefer, anyway, after-sales here is very bad they sell the bikes and little or no backup. Is there a dealer who is trustworthy in India who I can order parts from? Keep the good work up.

Excellent video, very clear explanation. I have had a Himalayan for about 4 months and I enjoy it very much. I have noticed that the rear wheel does not spin as smoothly when on the center stand like yours does. It sounds just a little "crunchy" if you know what I mean. I only have a bit less than 2000 km on it so far. Can I expect it to be more smooth as it breaks in further?

Thanks bro this helps. Also please correct the video title

my chain and sprocket are new, and I maintain well, but i started noticing that after correctly tightening the chain as soon as i sit on the bike like you did it becomes so tight suddenly. I also notice that in some parts the chain is tighter than in other parts. I have GT 535 - so same principles as this one. Any advice why it does that ? Thanks !

the most useful video... The audio is a little bit low... Please work on that... And keep them coming. 👍🏻

Many manuals including the Himalayan manual that I have recommend that it be around 25mm total by measuring the top of the chain when pressed down and then pushed up again to arrive at the total chain slack. Have you tried that? I did this with my bike and it really feels quite tight

Hi bro....my bike crossed 19k km, getting sound from the chain even after tighting the chain. Do i need to change chain & sprocket??

Hey, mine is a BS6 Himalayan, I have adjusted the slack to 25mm when on centre stand, but when the bike is on the wheel, the slack will be less than 15mm. How do you address that? Thanks in advance!

Hey.. how much torque do we use when tightening the rear axle nut? I usually tighten it to it's max with a light hand and then do a 90° turn until snug. Is this the right method?

Bro can u pls show the possible places chaian can rubbing....in my bike chain rubbing in top area which ur not covered in video....it's exactly opposite of the u measuring point....center foot rest area

In my Classic 350, I got like this some point of chain is loose and some are very tide, I don't understand what is wrong with that. I checked wheel bearing and sprockets but did not find any wrongdoing. Why this happened ?

Very helpful video but I do have a few comments. 45 deg is difficult for people to estimate, wouldn't it be easier to use 90 deg? Rather than taking off the lock nuts and measuring there, couldn't you use the scale provided on the wheel (you can see it in your video at 10:14)?

The main axle nut is a self securing nut, which should only be used once, and not tightened again. It should be replaced, as it is a security critical item. Or am I wrong in this case?

In the manual it says that the left side of the swing arm ( the two nuts ) is for the chain slack while the right side is for the rear wheel alignment, so adjusting both sides to be the same seems improper to me. I noticed on my bike that the left side and the right side are at different positions. My Himalayan has 486 miles on it, and had its first service done by a service center. I cleaned and lubed my chain today, loosened the wheel axle nut, and tried to follow your guidance, but the right side would have been so loose that the black cap was falling out. I could not have adjusted the left side for this, because my chain was in that 25-30mm range already. The length of the bolt from the base of the lock nut to the tip (on each side of the swing arm) is different for each side, I had 0.9 mm in length for the left side of the swing-arm (chain slackness) and 11 mm in length for the right side, after adjusting it, but as I said, these were already at different positions. The manual says to align the rear wheel with the front wheel by adjusting the right side of the swing-arm and aligning the reference markers that are on each side of the swing arm.

How to check chain & sprocket period..

Any details reg. bs6 2020 Himalayan launch in india. ????

That 24 mm ring spanner of yours is quite handy. Would you please help me order online?

Bro.. if the alignment ain't right which side nut should we keep as standard and fix another?

Can I do this in my ThunderBird 350X?

:-)

Sir r you on social media❤️?

Sir my height is 5.5 can I ride Himalayan smoothly

I think the people disliking this video expect those irritating techno music in the background

Where's the oil on the chain 😩
