I'm not sure of the size

I've never had to at double and higher mileages than your bikes done.

Speedy, small hammer n punch work perfectly. spring balance to measure load needed. in the manual, i cant rem. tension off top of my head. just a few bucks from e bay. mine has lasted forever, also good to check luggage weight for planes. head brgs last a long time, renew grease not a bad idea.

Thanks Grog.
I have bought a nice 0 - 2kg spring balance which seems nice and sensitive.
The service manual does suggest checking the settings every so often as you know.
Thank you for the tip with the punch..
I used that method on the MT-01 I used to own.

Thanks again mate.
