Hey, Dean got me set up with one of his old Hal's chain conversions with the swingarm, etc.

Just about ready to race, but what am I looking for in chain tension? Looks kind of dynamic with the non adjustable tensioner in that as the swingarm moves, the axle movement would take up what the tensioner doesn't take up. But where to start?

Thanks in advance again! Just about there!
