SETTINGS AND ADJUSTMENTS

Chain adjustment

Chain should be checked, adjusted and lubricated as per the Maintenance
Chart to ensure safety and prevent excessive wear.
If the chain becomes badly worn or is adjusted incorrectly (i.e., it is too loose or
too tight), it could jump out of the sprocket or break.
Check that distance "A" between the chain (1) and the bottom part of the slider
(2) measures 25 ÷ 30 mm (0.984 ÷ 1.181 in):
When the vehicle is running,the chain must not hit the bottom part of the slider
(2).
If this is not the case, proceed as follows:
- make sure that the motorcycle is fully upright on the special rear support
stand (optional).

- on the left side, loosen the locking nut (3) of the wheel axle;
- loosen the check nuts (5) on both chain tensioners;
- turn the adjuster screws (4) to obtain the correct tension and check on both
sides that the wheel centring sliders (6) are in the same position as the mark-
ings in the chain tensioner slider seats on the swinging arms;
- once adjusted, tighten the check nuts (4) and the wheel axle nut (3).
After adjusting, always check that distance "A" is 25 ÷ 30 mm (0.984 ÷ 1.181
in).
