Hi Idefix,

Here's some pix of mine. 2007 650 TA. I imagine it's likely to be the same as the 600 TA? I hope it's some use to you.

Mine was in the shed today and lost the exhaust cat woop's where'd that go and the airbox got a dose of religion. Hopefully that will result in better economy and a modest power boost espc at the bottom end.


Cheers, Tim.

I have a TA2007 and done just under 3000 miles. My left hand swinging arm is the same as TimG 's photograph. Prior to replacing the rear tyre and before releasing the rear axel bolt I measured the length of the showing thread on the distance adjusters on both sides of the arm and these were 10 millimeters each. This gave me a datum when replacing the rear wheel for straightness and for chain tightening.

Thank you both, I don't have a sticker on mine ... so needed to have some idea of if my chain is rubbish or not. Any way it is way dirty and has a little kink, so better replace I think. I must say, you guys have really clean bikes ..he,he.
