Cycle X #1 Full Support Racing Cam Chain Tensioner
Honda had it right the first
time (well, almost). Introducing the Cycle X version #2 racing cam chain tensioner. The geometry and design of the OEM Honda tensioner
is perfect, except for the upper and lower wheels, which can
disintegrate during racing applications and father time. Some of the
slipper style designs in the past will cause problems with milled heads
or cylinders, causing only the very top of the slider to make contact
with the cam chain and the cam chain will also hit the lower metal pin
(not good). By design, the lower wheel is very significant to keep the
chain happy and stabile by applying slight pressure on both sides of the
chain in the lower area of the case. Designs that eliminate the
lower wheel can and will allow the cam chain to slap, bounce and whip in
the worst case scenario. Also, without the use of the lower wheel, 8
inches or 25 chain link pins are unsupported. (In a perfect world,
no more than 10 pins should be unsupported)
The upper area of the Cycle X design uses a
slipper shoe that adds over
4 inches of added support. So,
with the combination of Honda's OEM design, Cycle X's battle tested
ingenuity, and using the latest zero friction materials that are
unaffected by heat, problem solved!
Note:
The photo on the left shows the Cycle X tensioner in a full cut-away to
show the supported chain links.

OEM Adjustable Camshaft Sprockets We all know why adjustable camshaft sprockets are used in the high performance world. But, stock motor configuration motors can benefit from these also. Have you ever tried to line up the camshaft marks after any sort of motor work or checking a few things? The marks usually never line up perfectly because of many reasons. One of the main reasons on a stock motor with any miles is cam chain stretch. The cam chain is like a rear chain. It stretches. So, install these modified poor man's adjustable OEM cam chain sprockets and realign your cam timing or install your performance cam.

Cycle X Cam Tower Stabilizers! Why do people install these
cam tower stabilizers? (generally welded) If you still doubt us, here's what one of our customers had to say about our modification: "Once again you guys are right on the money. Welding on aluminum is not only tricky to do right but actually makes the structure weaker. As a retired tool designer in the aircraft industry we use a LOT of aluminum weldments in tooling for weight as well as common expansion factors since the majority of structure we are holding, positioning, etc. are aluminum. Your fix for this old problem is right on the money, and the price isn't bad either." - Leonard Ledoux He continues: "You guys are spot on,
putting all that heat into the aluminum casting just turns it into
butter. I will grant that 42 years ago it was probably a good idea,
but we know so much more today about welding aluminum that it really
does relegate the welding approach to the dustbin of tried and
failed efforts. Even a machined from billet valve cover would suffer
if welded up in the manner usually presented. Your approach is far
superior." ENV-CTS1 $169.95 (without exchange) Call for availability
