The early tigers suffer from:
1. Dreaded alternator rattle (DAR). The bolts to the shaft for the cush drive on alternator shear off sometimes.
Thanks.. was having a hell of a time trying to figure out DAR
Quote...Check the chain rubbing strip on the swingarm , particually the bottom run at the rear , thats where it will deteriorate and start to chew into the swing arm . Also while you are down there make sure the rub block has at least 3/4 of itself left ....
a newbie, maybe even an oldie may not know what the OEM size is (what you called
itself above). So for that reason- can you tell us what the OEM size is so we can determine if at least 3/4's is left; or will it be evident when you look?
Thanx

you'll know, the edges will still be there but the chain will have eaten down into the plastic block so there will be a groove in it , eventually it will wear to the point that the chain grabs ahold of the metal bracket that the block is molded to and rips the whole affair right off the frame
