Consult a Yamaha dealer before ad-

each side of the swingarm in di-
rection (a). To loosen the drive

each side of the swingarm in di-
rection (b), and then push the rear
wheel forward.

Using the alignment marks on each
side of the swingarm, make sure that
both drive chain pullers are in the same
position for proper wheel alignment.
3. Tighten the axle nut, then the lock-nuts to their specified torques.
