Checking the chain for wear

CAUTION

The chain, sprocket and pinion must be
changed as one unit.

Prop the motorbike up on the side

stand.

Hold the chain (1) at the furthest rear

point of the sprocket and pull it off.

With correct chain tension, it should not

be possible to lift the chain higher than
the teeth of the sprocket.

If the chain can be pulled higher, have

chain, sprocket and pinion replaced by
your Sachs-dealer.
