I ran the engine but as soon as I ran it the chain kept coming off immediately. I screwed the sprocket cover on disengaged the engine by pulling in the clutch lever so that the wheel could spin freely and I could see how the drive chain was spinning.
Sorted out tensioner proximity to the spokes, pulled in/out accordingly until the chain would spin without coming off the sprocket instantly.
Then just kept rotating pedals really fast to mimic the speed that the chain would go if it was being propelled by engine. It would spin well for about 10 revolutions of the chain then boom there'd be a jam which I couldn't figure out till I opened sprocket cover and noticed the above pic.
After every jam I undid the master link clip - fixed chain position on the sprocket.
Tried again- it would spin well then boom deja vu.
I open cover and pic above once again 5 times this has happened
what could be causing this?
