Most bikes have the chains exposed, but if there was a chain tensioner built in you may need it. Our TRX70 didn't appear to have a tensioner built into the cover, I believe it was more for a safety guard so little kids don't get any body parts in there.

The chain shouldn't be so loose that it needs the cover as a guide. Most chain guides are plastic and only a couple inches long.

I found a diagram and it looks like you will be fine without it. http://houseofmotorcycles.bike...=179492&machineId=1922

Buy a real good chain lube at your local dealer.

my question do you need the chain cover on or can you do without it.. the problem that i am having is the chain cover is missing some plastic thing that goes on the bottom of the chain cover it looks like it might help with chain tension... so what i did id remove it completely but i am alittle concern because now i have just the bare chain showing so that means that dirt can get in... thoughts please
