RE: [ST] chain guide needed - quick!



Bill: I would have a friend help out and MEASURE the rear sag.. You should 
be able to get it to 35mm ( inch and a half)  no other way to really get it 
right. I can tell you that a friend of mine with a 00 ST with about 15K 
miles can't get it to that number the rear spring has sacked that much.
