thank again everyone for the reply.
i know chain looks tight in the picture but i assure you has easily 1 inch freeply with rider and weight on the bike.
i will take videos soon so you can see chain movement, slack, frame contact.
i was in contact with excalibur motorsports and they are the ones sending me the bigger chain rollers and asking me to just re-weld the lower roller instead of sending me a replacement unit.
he said that the warranty doesn't apply or cover that....
he seems to think if i run a bigger roller and a $10 rear chain guide i will be OK.
i explained that i didn't feel safe with a $10 chain guide keeping everything together at 50mph.
i wouldn't mind having to re locate a footpeg or panels not perfectly lining up, but this is more of a safety/operating issue than cosmetic.
left front shock guard also rubs on the tire, but i can live with it being off, but again the chain thing is just too much
hopefully i can get more input and excaliubur can stand by their "warranty" and send me a working unit.
