I got my bike with no cam chain in it (long story). Anyway I have a new chain I want to install and am having trouble getting the end of it around the crank sprocket. Is there some trick to this? Please dont tell me I have to split the cases!!

Thanks

Should be able to fish it around by taking the sumplate off. Never have tried this.
