chain and countershaft sprocket ???'s

[Hooligan]

hi all,<br><br>i am preparing to mount up new sprockets and a new chain on my bike - 94 yzf750r.<br><br>first question, and don't flame me if it sounds really stupid. when i prepare to loosen my countershaft nut, it's still counter-clockwise right? i am not sure if yamaha uses a reverse thread nut there and my haynes manual doesn't detail.<br><br>second, can anyone recommend a good chain tool? i know i need one that will press the rivets out to remove the old chain, and also be able to install the new chain.<br><br>thanks!!! <p></p><i></i>

Yes. Put it in gear, stand (yes, really) on the rear brake and reach over to loosen the nut. I have a chain breaker, think it cost me like $20. Can get them at just about any bike shop.<br><br> <p>Tim<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img69.photobucket.com/albums/v20 ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> Has anyone seen my keys?</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>Dir. of Entertainment<!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://eddieandthecruisersmc.com" target="top"> Eddie & the Cruisers</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--></p><i></i>

The countershaft nut is removed easily with a impact drill. <p>-John</p><i></i>
