    chain alignment tool from Pro-Lux Racing

    i just recieved my chain alignment tool from prolux racing
    1) great communication and fast shipping
    2)very high quality build
    3) very easy to set up and use
    4)can measure to rediculously small tolerances- you cant believe how strait forward it is to adjust the axle perfectly
    (stamped marks on my stock 09 750 swinger were a half a notch off)
    5)thought about making my own also- maybe with some chincy piece of all thread and some bullshit centering device, no by the end of all that i was still gonna be into it for $50+, and it was gonna be junk
    the parts on the ProLux product are properly machined carbon/tool steel and alum.( see#2)

    so maybe its not for everyone, but if you desire a perfect measurment, again and again, its a great addition to the shop

    clears my shorty R-55 exhaust that hangs off my footpeg without a problem

    Looks cool. I've just never found the need to be that accurate.

    while it helps to be that accurate, that thing is way too schmancy...but a nice piece.

    me, I was going to go with straight rod, some machined cones, and set screws, kinda like a tire balancing setup...one for the swingarm pivot, one for the axle
