So I'm hoping to get a set of the Gilles chain adjusters (TCA style) with the lifters. They don't list them for fitting the MT-10 (they list the AXB style which is not compatible with lifters) but they DO list them as fitting the R1/R1M 2015-2017. anyone know if the axle setup and the swingarm opening for the adjuster blocks is the same for both bikes? Goign from the images on the Gilles site the swingarm area looks pretty close to identical for the R1  The P/N for the MT-10 AXB adjuster is AXB-RN45 and the R1 is AXB-RN32. I'm assuming that number is the axle OD maybe? Maybe not as the Axle nut is the same for both bikes - M24x1.5 Doing some more digging the axle has the same P/N for both bikes - 2CR-25381-00-00 however the adjuster blocks have different numbers but only for the left side - B67-25389-00-00 for the MT and 5VY-25389-01-00 for the R1. Right side block for both is 5VY-25388-00-00. I'm assuming by that information the adjusters they list for the R1 should fit the MT. I'll have to buy a set from a place with a good return policy just in case lol |

I've got R1 chain adjusters, they fit fine. R1 swing arm is longer but the adjusters etc are the same.

Huh. I wonder what the difference is between the left side adjusters that warrants a different part number 🤔
In that case it would seem I could just order the R1 set with lifters and be good to go then

From what I’ve seen it’s not longer but it has a smaller rear sprocket so that accounts for the added wheelbase on the R1. Well I took a stab at emailing Gilles and this is the reply I got this morning: "The chains are different so that have been forced to so two different version of the AXB as otherwise the full use of the adjuster would not have been possible. That is why the sliders of the AXB-RN35 have another shape" So what you said sounds like it makes sense with what they said if I'm understanding the translation correctly. So theoretically there's no reason the R1 TCA style adjusters shouldn't work with the MT-10 it would seem. I'll have to get a set over the winter and see. |

Well I gave them a test fit yesterday and they fit perfect. Trying to find an anodizer that doesn't want a ton of money. The guy close to me wants $100 just for these two parts. Hell I could have bought a set of the TST ones and had money leftover for that lol   |
