i don't find my fazer easy to set chain tension on. with the axle and torque arm bolts loose i set the adjusters and get it just so but when i tighten either the axle or torque arm bolts it moves. i've tried gradually nipping with no luck, so i usually adjust it a bit loose and then tighten the bolts and it tightens up a little, but this is a bit trial and error until i'm happy with it.
also the yamaha manual stated 45mm free play and d.i.d. (my chain maker) 25-30. 45 seems way too loose to me so i set to (about given the above) 30mm.
any helpful suggestions?
is it clean enough?
