How to check the cam chain tensionner on a KTM 690 / ENGLISH / TUTORIAL / #The690shed
Показать описание
Here you'll see how the CCT works on a 690 and how to set-it up before installing it.
I'll do another video for the whole procedure in the future.
Read the workshop manual first, they are all over the internet.
And, don't forget to check if the O'ring is still in the CCT's chamber.
Otherwise, setting-it up and installing it correctly is just a complete waste of time. ;)

"Yeah mate but, what about the manual cam chain tensionner sold by rallyraid products (UK)?"
Not the best solution IMO, as almost no mechanic know how to adjust these.
They are a thing of the past, like carburetted and air cooled engines.
Sure it works, but at what cost?
They need to be checked often, by somebody that knows what he's doing.
690's had some issues with these in the past, I would say until 2012/2013 or something like that.
Seems like the newer parts are better now, doesn't mean they last for ages though, of course...
I replace mine every 2 years in the same time I replace the spark plug etc.
It's less than 40€ in Europe...
