2003LimitedBanshee Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I personally really like the TM Designworks case saver (it's what I run). I believe it is a plastic composite, plus it has a design that "locks" it into the output shaft area, as opposed to most of the metal savers. This would allow it to spread the load from a broken chain. My $.02 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed350x Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 I run the metal one, just because I don't trust little plastic parts. Yes they can be strong, but I just never liked them. Mine bolts up using the 3 bolts that hold the shift drumb backing plate on right below your sprocket and goes up around the front of the sprocket. Mine too is built so once you bolt it in, it is pretty much right on top of the cases all the way around. That way if the chain breaks the case guard binds up against the case all the way around AND has the 3 bolts holding it in place.

See picture below: 476442[/snapback] Yeah I wish I had a closeup picture of mine. What I am trying to describe is that the TM case saver basically fills the space in front of above and below the sprocket to lock against case front to back and top to bottom. You actually remove the front sprocket and it fits over the output shaft, as well as bolting up with the three screws. It essentially makes it to where it is impossible for the chain to wad up and expand breaking the case, because the load is distributed over 270 degrees.
