If you need to replace or adjust your balancer chain tension adjuster, otherwise known as the doohickey or doohicky, this service manual will provide all the instructions you will need. The doohickey provides tension for the balancer chain. If the doohickey is far out adjustment or fails you have a major problem that will cause damage to your Kawasaki KLR650 dual sport motorcycle.
This is what the doohickey spring looks like when the owner doesn’t adjust the balancer chain tension and the spring gets sucked through the balancer chain.
In the example above the failed doohickey spring caused the engine to jump time. This KLR650 engine ate both exhaust valves, damaged the cylinder head, cylinder, and piston all because the doohickey was not adjusted correctly. Get instant access to this online service manual, adjust the doohickey and maintain your KLR650 dual sport motorcycle to keep it running in top form for your next adventure.

I just purchased a lifetime membership for the Kawasaki KLR650 manual and so far I think it is great. I am a first-time motorcycle owner and know very very little about mechanics and routine maintenance. So I’m learning. I performed my first oil and filter change on my bike yesterday and was pleased with this accomplishment. Your online manual is a great product and I look forward to using it more in the future. – A. Bentley

Hey Cyclepedia! I really appreciate the follow up email I received today. I was trying to do some maintenance and was stumped about something. In my opinion, outstanding customer service is, relatively speaking, kinda rare. So, thanks! I’m so glad I subscribed to your online manual for my 2007 Kawasaki KLR650 – it’s definitely been worth the money I paid & already I’m getting to know my bike better. Thanks again! Peace. Tim

Canada’s Online Motorcycle Magazine CMG Reviews the KLR manual…
“The content is much the same as a shop manual, only the well-shot pictures are bigger and in full color (and so are the PDF format wiring diagrams, which are very useful). The instructions appear to be quite comprehensive… Price is not a lot for a good manual and you get access to a fully qualified mechanic for the duration of your subscription should you have any questions.”
