I have a friend that is on his 2nd S1000RR and he mentioned he only needs to adjust the chain when it's near the end of it's life.
On his current RR he is going without lubing the chain. Last month in Kentucky I asked how the no lube experiment was going and he said the chain was within a couple thousand miles of it's expected life.
He likes to travel light Smile
