Does anyone know of any company that makes a manual cam chain tensioner for a 400ex? Or maybe a manual tensioner for another model that fits a 400ex? I have heard of people converting their auto tensioner to manual one, but I haven't had any luck finding any information on anything. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

i have not heard of one but there may be something around. I am wondering why you are looking for a manual one? steve

ive never seen one for 400ex/xr's. we put one on my dads z, but they are much more prone to premature chain wear than the hondas.

i was talking about manual tensioners yesterday, i think its more likely to use on the race motors. the auto tensioners only make it tighter and tighter, the manual one can have it set at one tension
