DescriptionThe whole story▼

The Niken's two front wheels draw all the attention, but at the rear it has a conventional chain drive that needs regular adjustment. Gilles lists the AXB-RN45 for it: a model-specific adjuster that stays in the swingarm when the wheel is removed and supports the axle against tensile and compressive forces.

Key Features

  • Works with the original axle nut
  • Precise adjustment of the chain tension
  • Special screw moves the axle in both directions
  • Model-specific shape
  • Precise scale for accurate reading, evens out series tolerances
  • No registration required, according to Gilles

Type RN58

Listed from 2018. The scale makes it easy to set both sides equally.

Two front wheels, one chain

With its extra front-end weight, the Niken is still a normal chain-driven bike at the rear, so the usual chain checks apply.

Road Approval

Gilles lists this chain adjuster as free of registration on the Yamaha NIKEN. There is no certificate to carry; the requirement is a correctly fitted axle with the chain slack set to the manufacturer's value.

Scope of Delivery

The Gilles AXB chain adjuster AXB-RN45 for the rear axle of this motorcycle. The original axle nut is reused.

Fitting

Before tightening the axle, turn the rear wheel and check the slack at the tightest point of the chain. Read both scales, make them match, then torque the axle nut to the manufacturer's value.
