16 sprocket again (need help)

  • Hello all of you,


    First of all my excuses for writing in English but if I'll do this in German I'm sure nobody knows what I'm talking about.
    My name is Richard and I'm a happy owner of a titanium Superduke. Before I bought this bike I read a lot at this forum and learned a lot from you guy's. So one of the things I read about is ofcourse the '16 ritzel' (boring). I bought this ritzel and thougt that it was a piece of cake to mount it (as you wrote) but how the fuck do I get the chain from my rear wheel sprocket. I tried this with a little force but I don't think it's possible. Do I have to brake the chain or will I be the first one that did this ?
    Thanks if you'll answer (also in German).

  • Hallo Ries,
    warum läßt du das Ritzel nicht in einer KTM- Werkstatt einbauen, das kostet doch wirklich nicht die Welt. :prost:

    ......eat my Feinstaub.

  • superduke auf einen aufbockständer stellen sodass der hinterreifen in der luft ist, achse rausziehen und hinterrad ausbauen, ganz nach vorne schieben und voila die kette geht vom zahnkranz!
    danach kette richtung ritzel ziehen und erst dann geht sie auch vorne runter
    hab es vor ca. 1 stunde so gemacht und es hat super funktioniert.

  • I don't know what was wrong with me before but with some more patience and your help I manage to do this (and yes it was really easy).
    Thanks :perfekt:
