PERIODIC MAINTENANCE 2-39
Periodic Maintenance Procedures
Wheel Alignment Adjustment
•
Remove the right retaining ring [A].
•
Loosen the axle nut [B].
•
Loosen the right chain adjuster clamp bolt [C], and turn
the right chain adjuster [D] so that the left and right
notches on the swingarm may point to the same marks
or positions on the left and right adjusters.
•
Tighten:
Torque - Chain Adjuster Clamp Bolt: 64 N·m (6.5 kgf·m, 47
ft·lb)
Rear Axle Nut: 98 N·m (10.0 kgf·m, 72 ft·lb)
•
Replace the right retaining ring with a new one and install
it.
Drive Chain Wear Inspection
•
Remove the chain cover (see Drive Chain Replacement
in the Final Drive chapter).
•
Rotate the rear wheel to inspect the drive chain for dam-
aged rollers, and loose pins and links.
If there is any irregularity, replace the drive chain.
Lubricate the drive chain if it appears dry.
•
Stretch the chain taut by hanging a 10 kg (22 lb) weight
[A] on the chain.
•
Measure the length of 20 links [B] on the straight part [C] of
the chain from the pin center of the 1st pin to the pin center
of the 21st pin. Since the chain may wear unevenly, take
measurements at several places.
If any measurements exceed the service limit, replace the
chain. Also, replace the front and rear sprockets when the
drive chain is replaced.
Drive Chain 20-link Length
Standard: 317.5
∼ 318.2 mm (12.50 ∼ 12.53 in.)

WARNING
A chain that breaks or jumps off the sprockets
could snag on the engine sprocket or lock the
rear wheel, severely damaging the motorcycle and
causing it to go out of control. Inspect the chain for
damage and proper adjustment before each ride.
If chain wear exceeds the service limit, replace it
with the standard chain.
