    Trying to find a cam chain for my FZR400RR 3TJ1 described in parts book as DID 215F 110 Links
    I have sent a message to https://www.bandcexpress.co.uk/ in the UK to see if they can supply one.
    Cheers

    I might have to buy a 118 link chain from a YZF600 and remove some links.
    Update: B & C Express replied that I have to buy the 118 link chain and a joining link.

    There's a lot of options out there, our work has one that looks like this: https://www.google.com/aclk?sa=l&ai...MIlNum1tH55QIVTQ4rCh1H5wkPEAQYCiABEgLh-_D_BwE
    But you'll want a quality tool with hardened steel, can't remember the brand of ours. Some bikes have the cam chain in the middle of the block, so you can save yourself pulling the whole engine apart by breaking the chain, joining the new chain to it and feeding it down and around the crank - lift the cams so you can turn the crank without hitting valves. Good luck.

    Cheapo EMGO chain breaking and riveting tool. It has the 2.2mm pin required to drive out the pin.
