After doing my 500-600 mile maintenance and oil change (0n my own) all went well without a hitch. Fairing came off and back on quite easy...(expecting something worse)...I was inspecting my chain...
It moves about an inch and a half. I was going to tighten it myself but after seeing about half a dozen different measurements that must be exact to keep wheel in alignment and not possesing a torque wrench yet (rear bolt to 75 lbs)...I've decided to let the dealer handle this one. Also didn't get any kerosine, need to clean chain as well..
I would believe that I got a little extra stretch due to the chain being new...initial stretch and all. If this is the case and chain tightening wont be much of an issue maybe ever year or so...I'd rather not mess with it and just let the dealer do it.
If the Busa beast's pull, constantly increases chain length were it becomes a pretty regular ritual...I'd guess I better pony up the $70 at Sears for a torque wrench and go at it.
So how often does this come up??
And what do you recon a dealer would charge for cleaning a tightening a chain on a Busa?
