Checking chain tension
To check, place the motorcycle on the side stand. 30 mm (1, 2 in) from the end of the chain sliding component until the upper part of the chain is tensioned (see illustration) Now, the distance B between chain and swingarm should be 0 mm. Correct chain tension, if necessary!

WARNING IF CHAIN TENSION IS (CHAIN, SPROCKETS,
TOO HIGH, PARTS WITHIN THE SECONDARY TRANSMISSION DRIVE ASSEMBLY AND REAR WHEEL BEARINGS) WILL BE SUBJECTED TO UNNECESSARY STRESS, RESULTING IN PREMATURE WEAR AND EVEN CHAIN BREAKAGE. TOO MUCH SLACK IN THE CHAIN, ON THE OTHER HAND, CAN RESULT IN THE CHAIN JUMPING OFF THE SPROCKETS. IF THIS HAPPENS, THE CHAIN COULD ALSO BLOCK THE REAR WHEEL OR DAMAGE THE ENGINE. IN EITHER CASE THE OPERATOR IS LIKELY TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE MOTORCYCLE.

Chain maintenance
For long chain life, good maintenance is very important. The best way is to use lots of water, but never use brushes or solvents. After letting the chain dry, you can use a special X-ring chain spray (Motorex Chainlube Racing). WARNING NO LUBRICATION IS ALLOWED TO REACH THE REAR TIRE OR THE BRAKE DISK, EITHERWISE
THE ROAD ADHERENCE AND THE REAR WHEEL BRAKING EFFECTS WOULD BE STRONGLY REDUCED AND THE MOTORCYCLE COULD EASILY GET OUT OF CONTROL.

MOUNTING THE CHAIN JOINT, THE CLOSED SIDE OF THE SAFETY DEVICE MUST POINT IN RUNNING DIRECTION.
Also check sprockets and chain guides for wear, and replace if necessary.
Chain wear
In order to check the chain wear, regard the following indications: Shift the gear into idling and pull the upper chain strand with approx. Now one can measure a space of 18 chain reels at the lower chain strand. The chain should be replaced at the latest when a space of 272 mm (10. 70 in) is measured. Chains do not always wear off evenly, therefore repeat the measurement at different places on the chain.

NOTE: If you mount a new chain, the sprockets should also be replaced. New chains wear faster if used on old used sprockets.

NOTE: The large adjusting range of the chain adjusters (32mm) allows you to use different secondary ratios in combination with the same chain length. The chain adjusters 4 can be rotated by 180°.

BRAKE CALIPERS: The front brake caliper 1 has 4 brake pistons and is rigidly connected to the fork leg. The rear brake caliper has one brake piston and "floats", which means that it is not rigidly connected to the brake caliper support. [. . . ] Slide back the protective covers on the handlebar-mounted instruments so that any water that may have seeped into this part of the motorcycle is allowed to evaporate. After the motorcycle has cooled down, oil and grease all sliding and pivot points. To prevent failures in the electric system, you should treat the ignition lock, the emergency OFF switch, light switch and the socket connectors with contact spray.
