Adjustment of chain tension
The chain transfers the power output from the
engine to the wheels so that the motorcycle can
move. So it is an important part of the motorcycle.
Therefore, the chain needs frequent inspection
and maintenance to ensure its normal use.
The chain tension can be adjusted according to
requirements, the steps are as follows:
1. Fix the motorcycle so that the rear wheel is
completely suspended;
2. Measure the distance between the rear of the
flat fork and the chain. The normal distance should
be 30-40mm, which is about the distance between
two fingers. The distance should be close to the
normal distance, and it is not necessary to be very
demanding;
3. Loosen the rear axle nut;
4. Find the position with the greatest tension on the
chain when the normal distance is satisfied;
5. Through the nut on the tensioner, use the
notches on the tensioner and the lugs on the
adjuster to align the two ends of the flat fork;
