Maintenance and Adjustment
Chain Free-Movement
1. Maximum movement position
Inspection
• Support the motorcycle on a firm,
level surface with the side stand.
• Rotate the rear wheel to find the
position where the chain is tightest,
and measure the vertical movement
of the chain midway between the
sprockets.
• The vertical movement of the drive
chain must be 35 - 45 mm.
Adjustment
• If the chain free-movement
measurement is incorrect,
adjustments must be made as
follows:
• Loosen the wheel spindle nut.
• Moving both adjusters by an equal
amount, turn the adjuster bolts
clockwise to increase chain
free-movement and anti-clockwise to
reduce chain free-movement.
1. Rear wheel spindle nut
2. Adjusters
3. Wheel alignment markings
• When the correct amount of chain
free-movement has been set, tighten
the rear wheel spindle nut to
110 N m .
• Tighten the adjusters, anti-clockwise,
to 2Nm.
• Ensure that the wheel alignment
markings fall in the same position on
both sides of the motorcycle. Adjust
as necessary if incorrect.
