right and left chain adjusters an equal
number of turns to increase or decrease

swingarm.
If the drive chain slack is excessive when
the rear axle is moved to the furthest limit
of adjustment, the drive chain is worn and
must be replaced.

Lubrication:
Lubricate every 500 km (300 miles) or
sooner if chain appers dry.

Saturate each chain link joint so that the
lubricant penetrates between the link plates,
pins, bushings, and rollers.
