Chain slider

[GMP]

OK, we know the KTM chain guide is a no go. How about the slider/buffer on the swingarm? A bunch of the TMD replacements hanging on the wall at my friendly orange bike dealer. Stock one seems a little soft, OK for now but looks older than 30hrs.

I have a worn TMD KTM slider in my tool box. I'll offer it up against the Beta swingarm in the next few days when I am in the workshop. I would be very interested to see if it fits.

I checked my TMD KTM swingarm slider against the Beta tonight and it's no go I'm afraid.

The KTM guide is shorter and thicker than the Beta and the mounting points are very different, especially the top which is inline on the KTM and on an offset tab on the Beta. The bottom mount is also in a different place. Anyone who wants to drill and tap new mounting holes could make it fit but I would not like to do that myself. I'll wait for TMD do make a Beta specific item.

Oh well. Thanks for checking.
