The Dirt Tricks Timing Chain Tensioner resolves issues with a slack timing chain on the new 4-stroke motors. The 2008 and newer four-strokes use a timing chain tensioning device intended to develop its force using the engine oil pressure hydraulically. The OEM components have serious flaws, which can leave the timing chain in a slack condition. This can have disastrous consequences. The Founder of Dirt Tricks developed our timing chain tensioner as a simple, effective, and fail-safe replacement for the OEM tensioner. It correctly captures the oil pressure and uses a positive mechanical ratcheting system to prevent it from collapsing. If you have a “ticking” noise at idle, on your newer 4-stroke, you need this part.

The Dirt Tricks TC-3 Timing Chain Tensioner is designed to address common slack chain issues in 4-stroke KTM and Husqvarna motorcycles from 2018 onwards. Modern engines utilize a hydraulic tensioning device that depends on engine oil pressure, but OEM components often fail, causing the timing chain to become slack and potentially leading to engine damage. This tensioner offers a reliable, fail-safe alternative that ensures optimal chain tension and engine performance. Its innovative design captures engine oil pressure effectively and employs a positive mechanical ratcheting system to prevent collapse, providing a durable solution for maintaining proper timing chain tension. If your motorcycle exhibits a ticking noise at idle or experiences chain slack, this tensioner is a critical upgrade to prevent costly repairs and improve engine longevity. Easy to install and built with high-quality materials, the Dirt Tricks TC-3 tensioner restores confidence in your motorcycle's timing system, ensuring smooth operation and reliable power delivery. Whether you're maintaining a KTM 790 Duke, KTM 890 Adventure R, or other compatible models, this tensioner is a dependable choice for serious riders and mechanics alike.
