hi there i have a 1985 43f and all the parts i bought about a 18 months ago from yamaha they were not expencive , you can get fancy aftermarket bearing types from motorcross shops ,but my origanal yamaha one i bought seems fine ,i only use the bike on the road though so may be the off road guys out there may faver the bearing types which seem harder wearing ? . zigzag.

Hey guys - I am needing to buy a chain roller for my project bike - as it doesnt even have one!! When I got it the chain was running on the bolt!

I was looking at the aftermarket ones - but what size do I need an 85 XT600?

Cheers,

I once made a chain roller for and old xt500 out off a scate board wheel. It worked great and i had three spares when i was finished. Love those old xt yammys

received my chain roller and it didn't fit,the hole was too small to fit on the shaft, had to drill the shaft out and made it fit with a nut and bolt perfect

I guess I'll just give a try on my old skateboard or rollerblade wheels

Can you please post some pictures of what you have done. I'm planning doing something similar for my '92. XT, so I could "steal" some ideas from you.
