Chain Guide

[coolum74]

Have read a few post's re TM chain guide and they sound great...but is it worth saving a few dollars and just buying an XR one?

Is the year/model specific to suit my 06 FSE?

Thanks in advance

The XR guide is good, but for an extra $20 I think the TM is well worth the money. My girlfriend got one for her KTM and I was blown away with the quality. For reference I have the XR guide on my EC250.

what model XR guide? and does it go straight on?

I bought a CR125-250 one, the 2 holes were the right distance apart, except it was about 3mm to wide in the middle, so i ground it down and now its fine. it uses the facotry bracket that comes off the swing arm.
its a UFO one, cost me 30 NZD, so about 20 USD.

whats a TM?

LTR makes a nifty little bracket that bolts on to the swingarm. Then you bolt directly on a 1996-newer XR 250 chain guide. Works great. I personally like it better than the TM one becase it just looks like it's a stock part. No bling, just works.

Pretty sure LTR isn't making the guides anymore. Maybe Go Fasters will get some made up?

whats a TM?

TM designworks. They make chain guides and sliders and such.

Les may have one still that he'd sell. Give LTR a call.
