[QUOTE="Russ, post: 44336, member: 21395"] I don't think it would be a good idea in my opinion. It just sounds like it might put a lot of additional stress on the chain. You can't do this on many of the bikes I've owned because: Sometimes the rear sprocket is countersunk on one side for the bolt heads (like some XR's) The counter shaft sprocket sometimes has a spacer as part of the sprocket on one side to achieve the proper chain alignment. Even though neither of these appear to be the case on the KDX, I still wouldn't do it. I'm sure that my opinion won't be the only one though :). Some people talk about doing strange things with their chains to save a few pennies just to risk hundreds of dollars in damage. I was on a dual-sport ride last year and saw a guy's chain de-rail on his XT350. The chain came around and took a big chunk out of the side case. Very expensive and labor intensive fix. [/QUOTE]
