Drive Chain
Servicing Your Honda
Excessive chain slack may allow the drive
chain to damage the engine cases.
Check drive chain slack at several points
along the chain. The slack should remain
constant. If it isn’t, some links may be
kinked and binding. Lubricating the chain
will often eliminate binding and kinking.
Check the chain slider ( ) for wear. If the
ridge ( ) in the center of the slider is worn,
have your dealer replace the chain slider.
Inspect the drive chain for:
damaged rollers
loose pins
dry or rusted links
kinked or binding links
excessive wear
Replace the drive chain (page
) if it has
damaged rollers, loose pins, or kinks that
cannot be freed. Lubricate the drive chain
(page
) if it appears dry or shows signs
of rust. Lubricate any kinked or binding
links and work them free. Adjust chain slack
if needed.
