Smooth gear change at last!

I'd advise anyone against reducing chain slack to that extent.  The original manual spec was 50 - 55m but Yamaha reduced it to 45mm after a year or two of the Fazer being on sale.

For years I have always run 45-50mm and was aware that this got tight as the rear suspension compressed. The 35-40mm advice came from a yam dealer and as it made the gear change better I didnt have any reason to doubt it. So will test going back to 45mm with the clutch mod.
