Chain tensioners on B motors
All the B/S about the chain drive cams, but never here anybody gripe about the chain driven counter-balancers. Are these a timebomb too? Also, those that are running big HP motors in the newer bikes, did you ditch the counter-balancers?

no........ no time bomb just hype from people trying to push their products on ya.
i got rid of mine but if i had to do it again i would of kept them....
i replaced just about everything that can vibrate off and locktite everything else. but i do spin the motor a little more then the avg rider does but my motor was built to do it.

I like to play on the upper side of the rpm range myself, but got to thinking about those counter-balancers spinning around in there. I here conflicting sides about weather or not a "B" motor is safe up to 6200 rpm. I don't hit the 6200 rpm rev-limiter that much, but set at 5500, I'll hit it quite regular.
