chain adjustment

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MV Agusta F4 : One Thread

i have read previous posts regarding the chain adjustment. i am not clear if the 6mm gap between the centre of the chain & the lowest part of the chain guard is when the chain is being tensioned by your finger or when it is at is normal level. Thanks

Hello Fiorello, When it is at normal level.

Something I didn't know until the past couple of months was this posted on yahoo:

750F4S: Standard 40T gearing = 6mm +1 41T gearing = 7mm +2 42T gearing = 8mm +3 43T gearing = 10mm

I had been running my 43T much too tight even though chain sag seemed to be fine for free play.
