ADJUSTING THE DRIVE CHAIN SLACK
NOTE:
The drive chain slack must be checked at
the tightest point on the chain.
ACHTUNG:
CAUTION:
A drive chain that is too tight will over-
load the engine and other vital parts,
and one that is too loose can skip and
damage the swingarm or cause an acci-
dent. Therefore, keep the drive chain
slack within the specified limits.
1. Stand the motorcycle on a level surface.
WARNING
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.
