I'm pretty good with keeping it clean and adjusted, always have been. After the chain snapped and locked the rear tire up @ 60 mph on the TL, I tend to be pretty anal.

Stock chain, with about 10k on it. Cruising at 60 mph.

I just use the hash marks on the swingarm.

Close enough.

There's no alignment issues with the buells. The axel goes through, you tq it, it's aligned.

I'm particular because of my hubby. But generally we get the back wheel off without messing up the chain adjusters so we don't have to worry about it.

But to get those right we use the hash marks and a ruler.

QFT! Yea, once you get it right, you're good until you change chains/sprockets and even then if you're a bit anal about how many times you turn the adj screws....:lol:
