auto cam chain tensioner question

[Prisoner6]

I have a CCT from a 98 XV535 Virago, will it work on my xs 1100?

Yes, it will work ...

That ACCT is one of the "Vision" units. You'll most likely have to file one of the mounting holes to make it fit.

Read the following ACCT mod thread by crazy steve, paying particular attention to the Vision ACCT references:

Thanks Mr.6 for that info!.

I just put a venture cam chain tensioner on my brother's bike on Friday. The holes didn't need any modification, but I did have to tighten the bolts down going back and forth. And I'll give you a tip on how to keep one from leaking around the bolt holes. A cheap paper hole punch will make a nearly perfect sized hole in an aluminum can, and you can trim the OD with a pair of scissors. A couple of them for each bolt makes a nice poor-man's crush washer, and it works. JAT

What a great idea, Doug, and it goes right next to the rolls of gasket materials, thanks!

Thumbs up on this Modification

Did this over the week end. used one from a V Max and bought a couple of shorter bolts. could not have went any smoother.

I'm liking it very much should have done this sooner.
Thanks to all that posted the information for this mod.
