3. Loosen the locknut on each side of the swing-
arm. To tighten the drive chain, turn the ad-
justing bolts in direction (a). To loosen the
drive chain, turn the adjusting bolts in direction
(b) and push the wheels forward. Turn each
adjusting bolt exactly the same amount to
maintain correct axle alignment.
TIP

There are alignment marks on each side of the
swingarm and on the wheel hubs. Use them to
check for proper wheel axle alignment.
