Can anyone give me step by step instructions on how to adjust the manual cam chain tensioner on my busa? Engine is all stock except 80thousandth spacer under cylinder, stiffer valve springs and 02 clutch mod w/ h.d. springs. The tensioner is an a.p.e. Thank's for your help!

the way i did it, i measured the distanse between the show of the chain & the surface of the cylinider heard where the tensioner bolts. & i turn the long bolt on the new tensioner until i reached the desired measurment. then i installed the new tensioner & tight the 2 screws that hold the tensioner to the cylinder head. after that was done i thightend the long screw a complete 1 1/2 turn & then hold that screw with oper end wrench & tight the nut so the screw will not back off.
hope that helped a little.
