makes sense...

warped discs could be overheating the fluid, introducing air..

[Censored] hell thats a lot of hassle to go to. i've never had to do this when adjusting a chain in my experience most swing arm markers are fine, however if you are having problems why don't u just take a measurement to the end of the swingarm (i.e. from the centr of your axle bolt) on both sides ...

By increasing the rear preload you will raise the ride height of the bike and affectively change the geometry of the bike giving you quicker steering. In theory the extra weight tranfer towards the front of the bike will result in the front tyre wearing out quicker (altho in practise this is likely...

Already mentioned, but if your bike is eating chains then they are either really cheap ones, or you need to adjust them and keep them oiled!

Renthal are good, and I'd recommend Band C express. have called them many times at 4pm and had the sprocket the next day.

Talon are also good.
