Almost forgot- the engine chain was ALMOST long enough to fit (within a few thousandths) without the tensioner. I had to leave an extra link in, and because of that, had to install the (optional?) tensioner wheel. By my calculations (and experience) after a few miles, the engine chain should stretch enough to allow me to remove another link, which will allow me to get rid of the motor chain tensioner. It -could- be that it is the cause of at least part of the vibration. It sure is loose and floppy! Whatever kind of bearing they used there is by no means precision! I'd say there is at least 1/16" of side-to-side slop in that pulley!
