I took my nephew on a wonderful ride today, 300 miles of Rocky Mountains
in Utah and Wyoming. The 93 rode like a complete dream the entire way,
lots of power, lots of handling, lots of character. The ABS light
flashed at me sporadically, but I am going to call that Yamaha guy that
someone just posted and get it dealt with.
Now to the troublesome part. This morning while prepping the bike for
the ride I decided the chain was a bit slack. Because I already had the
owner's manual out I took another look at the procedure, and discovered
the bolt I had been loosening in the past was not the one that Yamaha
wants you to loosen, I have been doing the wrong bolt for months! Then
I tried to get a wrench on the correct bolt. IT WAS TOTALLY
IMPOSSIBLE! It looks to me like the only way to get to that bolt is to
move the exhaust. If Yamaha thinks I am going to remove the exhaust
every time the chain needs adjustment, they are even more inscrutable
than I thought. Does anyone out there have a method of loosening that
bolt without removing hardware? I was able to adjust the chain anyway
without too much fuss, but I would prefer to do it the right way if
possible.
