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 spec-
ified limits.
