Wear inspection:
Check the chain wear label when adjusting
the chain. If the red zone (5) on the label
aligns with the index mark (6) on the
swingarm after the chain has been adjusted to
the proper slack, the chain is excessively
worn and must be replaced. The proper slack
is:
25-35 mm (1.0 -1.4 in)
Damage to the bottom part of the frame may
be caused by excessive drive chain slack of
more than:
50 mm (2.0 in)
This motorcycle has a staked master link
drive chain witch requires a special tool for
cutting and staking. Do not use an ordinary
master link with this chain. See your Honda
dealer.
