ADJUSTING THE DRIVE CHAIN SLACK
NOTE:
_
The drive chain slack must be checked at the
tightest point on the chain.
CAUTION:
_
A drive chain that is too tight will overload the
engine and other vital parts, and one that is
too loose can skip and damage the swingarm
or cause an accident. Therefore, keep the
drive chain slack within the specified limits.
1. Stand the motorcycle on a level surface.
WARNING
_
Securely support the motorcycle so that
there is no danger of it falling over.
NOTE:
_
Place the motorcycle on a suitable stand so
that the rear wheel is elevated.
2. Spin the rear wheel several times and find
the tightest position of drive chain.
