    Red face Timing chain tensioner

    Hi Guys,

    Iv'e got a 1983 XL600R fitted with a Dommie engine, (kickstart only) i'm replacing the crank as the rod was damaged. Do i need the Honda tool for the Timing chain tensioner or is there a way of doing it without the tool, any help would be much appreciated.
