How much play in shaft ?

Blew my first belt today, noticed alot of slop in the secondary. How much play should I see. The chain tensioner is finger tight. 08 nytro 180 mcx thanks Mark

its normal if you have reverse

Yes, I do have reverse. I have never noticed so much slop. Should I follow the finger tight rule?

Finger tight, then back off 1/4 of a turn.

The slop you feel is not in the chain, its the way the gears are designed when you have reverse.

100% normal. Eric
