1/2 inch up & down 1/2 way between the sprockets. is whats recomended in the book but I usually run a little looser than that because a worn chain will sometimes tighten up on a long trip on a hot day, then get the slack back after it sets a few hours.not sure why that is but I've had it happen.
if your heavy, set the chain with some weight on the seat, the slack will change as the swing arm moves up & down.
