[quote=pbrown]I thought the 33-35mm was a measurement down from the swingarm (or chain shoe) to the pin rather than a measurement of how far up/down? This is one of the reasons I was asking about the label as there seems to be different answers depending on what you read.
You are dead right, it is not the total chain displacement. This is due to the design of the swingarm. Worse, my 1098 handbook was wrong, the label on the swingarm showed (just sold 1098) correct instructions i.e. measured from aluminium part of swingarm.
Overtightening the chain was the cause of that sprocket recall.
