Maintenance

Chain Tension Inspection

Check the amount of chain slack by moving the

vehicle slightly forward to remove slack at the top

side of the chain.

NOTICE: Never adjust or operate the vehicle with the

rear drive chain too loose or too tight. Severe

damage to the transmission and drive

components can result. Chain tension must be

inspected with the swing arm in the position

shown in the illustration so that the axle, swing

arm pivot and drive sprocket are aligned

horizontally (2).

The chain has a press-on master link. A chain tool

must be used if it's necessary to remove the chain

for service.
