adjust it as follows. NOTICE: Im-
proper drive chain slack will
overload the engine as well as
other vital parts of the motorcy-
cle and can lead to chain slip-
page or breakage. If the drive
chain slack is more than 25.0
mm (0.98 in), the chain can dam-
age the frame, swingarm, and
other parts. To prevent this from
occurring, keep the drive chain
slack within the specified lim-
its.
