Is it really worth it for street riding ? I have been looking at it but Im not sure if I should get it..
And if your looking for a US vendor , there's riderdiscount.com that are selling these for 239$ shipped.

And if your looking for a US vendor , there's riderdiscount.com that are selling these for 239$ shipped. Ah the question the greatest modders have asked themselves since the dawn of aftermarket motorcycle parts. There are some that would say this is the first and only mod needed to make perfect what Yamaha almost got right in the first place. Then there are some that would say adding anything but fuel to your bike is a waste of money. For me, anything to do with working on the chain is large messy pain in the ass. It just a hair south of getting a stuck oil filter off...but just a hair. The dealer wants my left testicle to adjust and lube the chain. About what these are delivered. So, I think its a hell of a deal and since I have the stroke...they are coming home soon. As an added bonus....BLING. I got a thing for red accent pieces on my black bike. Thank god I live in TX. There are at least three states where my "thing" would be considered a crime. |

No price match 😒 Thanks for reaching out to us and I hope all is well. Unfortunately, to be eligible for a Price Match the competitor must be an Authorized US Dealer. Since Motostorm is based in Italy, we would not be able to match their pricing. We caution against overseas purchases as the prices rarely include brokerage fees, duties and taxes that will be levied upon delivery to you. Any sizing, quality, arrived damaged or warranty issues that may come up will also fall on the purchaser to cover all shipping costs, both to and from. If you do find a lower advertised price from an authorized US retailer, feel free to add the item to your cart and submit a request on this page: www.revzilla.com/price-matchIf there is anything else we can help with please feel free to reach out. Thanks, |

And if your looking for a US vendor , there's riderdiscount.com that are selling these for 239$ shipped. I couldn't find the one you listed on Discount Rider. Can you link it page for everyone who wants to buy US. They don't seem to carry any LighTech products. I also looked at RevZilla's price match policy. They say US only. Also they say that if it's over $50.00 they won't match. They sell them for $260.00 a set. If you can find cheaper please list the direct link to the webpage so others can get if better deal if they choose. |

I don't have any issue with a good price on a good product, but I don't recommend a knockoff of any product that has the potential to end your riding days forever. When it comes to anything that is wheel and axle related, buy the well known quality part from the well known quality brand. I've seen guys run the knockoffs, but I wouldn't trust it. Add quality helmets to that list and you'll be all set. As for knock offs, maybe levers or something secondary like that. |

I was planning on buying the Lightech Chain adjuster in the future when I came across these on Ebay. I figured "what the hell" let me give them a shot. If they don't work out I'll just get the Lightech at a later date. So far they seem to be working fine. All the materials were solid, well machined, and it was a perfect fit. Normally I like to buy established brand name parts but, in this case I have no complaints about this chain adjuster.  |

This is for the U.S. guys. Cheapest I've found so far. Key word is I've. $260 shipped here in California. Base price is $260 plus like $18 in tax depending on where you live and free shipping on orders over $99. This is just for the adjusters too, nothing else. I have no problem paying a little extra if it helps support the STG guys. They're racers and riders selling parts to other racers and riders. Plus they have some really good information in their youtube videos too. Best part about it, you can earn STG cash on your purchases. I just saved about $20 on my order because I bought my Sidi Mag-1's from them and had the STG cash in my account. www.sportbiketrackgear.com/lightech-chain-adjusters-yamaha-yzf-r1-15-17/I can't wait until I get my little box of goodies. It's going to be like an early birthday for me.  |

You could put plastic adjusters in there and they will hold if torqued to spec. 🤔 |
