Simple yet effective. No fireworks, no narration, yet easy to grasp. Well done.

First video I’ve seen that is straight forward... you are also the first person I’ve seen smart enough to use the calliper to verify both sides are even. Would have like to see you use it before the adjustment to verify it was even to start... good job

Brilliant... no bullshit, just education distilled to necessity. 👍

I was always taught that you check for tight spots all along the chain after adjusting. Chains do not always wear evenly.

Not often I like and leave a comment, but you deserve it. Straight to the point, God quality footage and post production.

Just did it following the video. I usually faff about much more but that was straight and simple. Great video style. Cheers guys

I see you torque that locking nut to one 'ahh' of torque 😂

Thx didn't use any fancy tools, this is a video for people with not a vast arsenal of tools

the best video on this topic, short and clear

THANK YOU!

I love straighforward videos like this one

Without any words, but very understandable. Thank you.👍🏍️

Take notes. None of that WWWWWWWWWHUTS UP RU-vid? those ppl should be banned.

Using calipers for alignment was my strategy as well. There is probably a better way but I couldn't think of anything.

Very good video, simple and straight forward, but you should show people that you actually have to use a Torque wrench, and the setting the Manufacturer have set to use for the rear axle, overtightening the axle can cause numbers of problems for your brake.

Book says to tighten rear axle nut to 88 N.m, 65 lbf.ft, 9.0 kgs.m

Simple video,right to business and Thanks bud!!!

Well said.

Is your bike the standard hight? Eyeballing a 2013 5000km model which has been lowered and figuring out if I can bring it back to original

Exactly what I needed to see, thank you!!!!!

Great video. Regards from Colombia

Im assuming you measuring from the back of the swing arm to the end of adjusting screw is for alignment purposes? If so do you find that the swing arm alignment indicators that are built in are off?

Can you adjust the chain properly without a bike stand?

Thanks I really need to adjust mine

So I love the straightforwardness of this video and how it's shot, but I notice that you didn't put either a towel or a screwdriver in between the chain the the sprocket and roll the tire forward some, to make sure it's firmly seated before tightening the axel nut again, like I've seen in a couple other videos. Is it not THAT crucial of a step or something?

How many torque wrench

obviously loosen both axle nuts not just the right one?

What kind of stand is that cause I have a 2014 CB500F and I can't find the right rear stand for it.

Perfect, thanks

Perfect

Thanks

What is your exhaust ?

close rear nut with torque wrench. other is good.

great video

New to riding, how often does this need to be checked/adjusted under normal riding conditions?

Forgive my lack of knowledge but let me just ask I want to attempt this on my cb300r which has the same chain/axle/locking nut combination. You're loosening the right axle nut only? then each sides respective locking nut? then you check slack to be within spec? and after you're checking the allignment of the chain? Snug everything up when you're all good and within spec? correct? 😬

what's the tool called at 1:14?

What was that tool you used to check the alignment?
