Cam chain tensioner

Post by pwild53 » Sun Jan 23, 2005 8:22 am

I have a 1964 CB77. The tensioner is shot. The parts book lists 2 different ones. A large for early and a small for late. What is the difference? Can they be interchanged?<br /><br />Phil

I think the spacing between the 4 mounting holes is the only difference between the two tensioners. Which means they cant be interchanged. Let me know if ya need one I think I have some extras of various years.<br /><br />georGe
