Drivetrain slack

[Lez72]

hello, im new to fazer 600, how much slack is too much ? where will the slack be, in the gearbox or clutch basket?  and is there a way to adjust it ?
cheers

The 'slack' that the above posters are referring to is the chain 'slack'. This is measured by having a handy little ruler available and pushing upwards on the lower chain run to see how many mm of play/movement there is. The chain is adjusted by loosening the rear wheel axle nut and adjusting the nuts on the trailing end of the swingarm. If you are going to attempt this, make sure you look at both sides of the swingarm when making the adjustment. There are alignment marks on both sides where the axle slides through which are an aid to making sure your wheel is in alignment. When you are happy with the slack in your chain be sure to tighten the axle nut and check the tightness of the chain again. Tightening the axle nut can alter the chain slack to some degree and put your settings out again. This sounds pretty complicated to do but is made much easier if you have a manual to hand with diagrams which I would suggest if attempting for the 1st time
