I was riding and a brick caught the chain and the chain came off. when I got back to the house the chain was on top of the other. No I cant get the chain on the back sprocket. I checked the sprockets and the casing, and it seems to be fine. I need help on how to fix the problem.

So...you're problem is you cant get the chain back on?

I guess you could do one of 2 things. You could take out the master link and wrap the chain around the sprocket and put the master link back in if you can.

If that wont work, (keep in mind im used to honda's chain adjusters..) you could loosen up the adjsuter bolts on the back of the swing arm and 'push' the carrier forward giving the chain more slack and making it easier to get on. then readjust the tension on the chain.

I hope i understood what your problem was...

Is the chain bound up on top of itself on the front sprocket? I'm confused here. If that is the case loosen the bolt for the carrier slide if forward to loosen the tention on the chain then slide the front sprocket off and the chain will come lose. ....If that is what your taling about???
