To check the clearance:
•
Shut off the engine.
•
Rest the vehicle on its stand.
•
Engage neutral gear.
•
Check that the vertical oscillation at a point between the pinion and the crown
on the lower branch of the chain is approx.
25 - 30 mm (0.98 - 1.18 in).

If clearance is uniform but over 30 mm (1.18 in) or below 25 mm (0.98 in), adjustment
