Chain guides

Postby Littlewheels » Mon Aug 05, 2024 11:02 pm

I'm building an engine and about to fit a chain guide but which one is best? Some say top guide only, others say top & bottom? I have a Tino Sacchi, Casa X44, MB nylon & original innocenti parts :?:
Thanks

as long as you dont re-use any Indian top & bottom on a tuned motor, sh*t spot welds :shock:

Used to use the MB One - but have now switched to the Casa X44.

Some people have reported instances where the two countersunk bolts have come loose - but I havent had a problem - although I do make sure they are tight tight and a dab of loctite

I dont bother with a bottom chain guide - not sure if this against popular opinion
