Hi Guys. Stupid question, but I need to take up a bit of slack on the drive chain. I've opened the 2 screws on the rear of the swingarm. Bike is propped up so the rear wheel is off the ground. What next? Do I pull back using the chain guard?

yep,thats how I do it.:)
You can buy the tool for attacking the adjuster on Ebay,costs around £17,I think.The 916/996 bikes used to get one in the tool kit.
Just as easy to turn the chainguard tho!
BTW,Its very easy to overtighten the chain,so be carefull.
