NOTE:
Turn the axle adjusters about 1/16 of a turn at a time and monitor wheel alignment as you proceed.

back of the swingarm and turn the axle adjuster bolt IN
(clockwise) to draw the axle back or OUT
(counterclockwise) to push the axle forward.

adjustment. Readjust if necessary, until the marks on both axle
washers are in the same position in relation to swingarm marks
and the drive belt tension is correct (see Check Drive Belt
Tension, page 86).
