PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
3-20
NOTICE
ECA20870
Improper drive chain slack will overload the
engine as well as other vital parts of the mo-
torcycle and can lead to chain slippage or
breakage. If the drive chain slack is more
than the specified limit, the chain can dam-
age the frame, swingarm, and other parts. To
prevent this from occurring, keep the drive
chain slack within the specified limits.
4. Loosen:
•
Wheel axle nut “1”
5. Adjust:
•
Drive chain slack

a. Loosen both locknuts “1”.
b. Turn both adjusting bolts “2” in direction “a” or
“b” until the specified drive chain slack is ob-
tained.
TIP
•
To maintain the proper wheel alignment, adjust
both sides evenly.
•
There should be no clearance between the ad-
justing block and adjusting bolt.
c. Tighten the wheel axle nut to specification.

LUBRICATING THE DRIVE CHAIN
The drive chain consists of many interacting
parts. If the drive chain is not maintained proper-
ly, it will wear out quickly. Therefore, the drive
chain should be serviced, especially when the
vehicle is used in dusty areas.
This vehicle has a drive chain with small rubber
O-rings between each side plate. Steam clean-
ing, high-pressure washing, certain solvents,
and the use of a coarse brush can damage
these O-rings. Therefore, use only kerosene to
clean the drive chain. Wipe the drive chain dry
and thoroughly lubricate it with engine oil or
chain lubricant that is suitable for O-ring chains.
Do not use any other lubricants on the drive
chain since they may contain solvents that could
damage the O-rings.
