Chain adjustment

I measured the chain adjust on my HM and it's differnt than what the label says. It's more like 43mm than 33mm. Any opinions? (I posted this in the Chat forum by mistake)

Thumbs up

33mm is right, 1.29 in. or a hair over 1 1/4in. for the Gringos, Aloha Alex

depends which source...
search for posts here.the manual ( on CD) states 43mm ( or thereabouts) from the metal part of swing arm to the pin whereas the swingarm sticker states 30-33 or something else.I run mine 40 ish.No probs.Better a little loose than too tight.
just my opinion
