Kawasaki KLX250 KLX250S KLX250SF all years cam chain tensioner made in U.S.

Description: If your Kawasaki 250 and 300 engine is rattling between 4000-6000 rpm and it is loudest on the right side of the engine, your cam chain tensioner is failing. Quiet down the cam chain slap and end unnecessary wear on your cam chain and sliders… Krieger Cam Chain Tensioner for 1994-2020 Kawasaki KLX250S and KLX250SF Made in the U.S.A. by me for you. This is the original, with a proven record noted in various KLX forums and threads. Not a copy that may or may not work properly. This tensioner design was developed with the help of a KLX250 rider at the request of KLX250 riders and I now also ride a KLX250, as does my brother. A several thousand of them have been sold since first developed in 2009. It is a bolt in replacement, guaranteed to fit and work to adjust the cam drive. And a major plus that I am available by phone or other methods should you need help or have questions. When I started making tensioners the first ones were for my own Kawasakis the way I wanted them to be. The alloy body is 6061T aluminum with zinc coated hardware for corrosion resistance. The new fasteners are countersunk allen heads to make a clean installation that allows unimpeded access to the lock nut. There is a high temperature tolerant Viton O-ring seal under the lock nut to seal up around the adjuster bolt threads. The kit also includes two gaskets, so you have a spare, instructions, and a couple of decent quality stickers for the bike, the tool box, or whatever. The external adjuster bolt set up uses an acorn nut and jam nut for a clean look and to allow the bolt to be shortened or the oil seal O-ring to be replaced. All you need are the tools, the gasket goop (I used Hondabond), and the ability to follow the simple instructions included with the tensioner. Returns will be on a case by case evaluationIf you have reason to return the product if it is the correct part for the motorcycle you have information to contact me. Return shipping is paid by the buyer, if the part was installed there will be a $5.00 materials charge for gasket and rework for resale. To date there are several thousand Krieger tensioners sold in over 40 countries. There are reviews and positive comments in the the Kawasakimotorcycle forum, the unofficial Kawasaki forum, ADVriders forum, the Superhawk forum, and the Motorcycles forum.

Here are a few comments from buyers: Well I have an {XXX tensioner} for my CBR600 and the build quality of the Krieger tensioner is far better regardless of price. Also the instructions were top notch, and the {XXX} had none. Every angle I look at it shows your tensioner being superior. – Trevor I received the tensioner today and installed it right away, and I’m very happy with how it works I will spread the word on the KLR forums. – Clark Well, the tensioner was affordable and well made. I think the machining was done very professionally. I liked the small O-ring behind the lock nut. The fit was perfect and instructions that came with the tensioner were very useful. I removed the old, stock tensioner, installed the new tensioner, followed the instructions for setting the tension with the bolt and tightening the lock nut which was all a breeze. I needed to loosen the clamps on the rubber adapters and move the carbs out of the way a little bit, but that was not a problem. Starting the bike after I installed the tensioner was like having a different bike. It quieted significantly! There was no chain noise anymore! It was like a different engine running! I am happy with the part and how it functioned so far. Keep up the good work. – Vlad Put the tensioner in yesterday and made a huge difference in the noise, I didn't know how bad the chain slap was. The only thing I might do is cut the adjuster (bolt) off shorter to make it a cleaner look. – Clark … the tensioner is doing its job perfectly. I could tell as soon as I got it that it was quality craftsmanship. I made the most recent adjustment at 26,000 miles, just a hair of a turn clockwise. I really notice a difference when closing the throttle at high rpms. The noise is much quieter and it sounds much smoother. It's good to know that my valves are properly timed! Thanks again for making a part that was virtually impossible to find elsewhere. I'll spread the word about your website and thanks for the stickers! – Nick I finally got around to putting on the tensioner on Sunday. Wow, those are some complete directions. As long as you know which end of the screwdriver to hold on to, anyone can install it correctly with those directions. Thanks. – Tom I think you get the idea… The tensioner bolt varies in length for some, because some have a shorter depth to reach the tensioner shoe, which means the adjuster bolt will extend out slightly further. Or you can contact me if you have a different model and I can make one with a shorter bolt. I have tensioners for numerous Kawasakimodels. Visit my site to see a list of bikes that use the tensioners I presently make. I am willing to custom make a tensioner if at all possible for the same cost, which I have done for a 2002 Z7S and a 2009 RMz450. Feel free to contact me through ebay.
