They do make the bike look really nice! Turns it from a custom fab looking piece of aluminum, to a beautiful machine!

brumbrum said:Adam has ordered in some 14t sprockets for the lmx motor. I will be trying this soon with a 100t rear sprocket from eBay. This will give a slightly lower gearing ratio of approx 7.2:1 instead of the original 7.8:1 With the idea of reducing some noise from the original 12t front sprocket. The lmx161 noise is not too bad as long as the chain is well lubed. I am using chainsaw oil at present which is like treacle but does need constant re-application. Calming the front sprocket noise is the main aim

I use to have the previous #520 chain in the LMX , that WAS 10x louder than 219
have you tried a #219 O-ring chain ? there is less friction so might have less noise

Putoline Chain Wax is by far the best chain lube I've ever used.brumbrum said:I am using chainsaw oil at present which is like treacle but does need constant re-application. Calming the front sprocket noise is the main aim
