Wear inspection
Check the chain wear label when adjusting the chain. If
the red zone (6) on the label aligns with the arrow mark
(7) on the chain adjuster plates after the chain has
been adjusted to the proper slack, the chain is
excessively worn and must be replaced. The proper
slack is:
35 – 45 mm (1.37 – 1.77 in)
Damage to the bottom part of the frame may be
caused by excessive drive chain slack of more than:
60 mm (2.4 in)

Lubrication and cleaning
Lubricate every 1,000 km (600 miles) or sooner if
chain appears dry.
The drive chain on this motorcycle is equipped with
small O-rings between the link plates. These O-rings
retain grease inside the chain to improve its service
life.
The O-rings in this chain can be damaged by steam
cleaning, high pressure washers, and certain solvents.
Clean the side surfaces of the chain with a dry cloth.
Do not brush the rubber O-rings. Brushing will damage
them. Wipe dry and lubricate only with SAE 80 or 90
gear oil. Commercial chain lubricants may contain
solvents which could damage the rubber O-rings.
