I just rebuilt my motor last monday and everything is running good, but when I changed my oil after riding it for a day or two I noticed there was some trash in the filter. I just thought it had some in it from the old motor so i put new oil and filter in it. then i went to highland park and rode all day sunday, today I checked the oil filter and there was more trash in the filter so i decided to take the left side case cover off and check it out. when i did i found chunks of plastic and when i looked further i noticed my timing chain guide on the front side of the motor was all chewd up. Is my chain tensioner to tight or do those things just go bad.:confused:
