The cam chain has an automatic adjuster.

I think he's asking about a motorcycle drivechain adjustment on the Pulsar 125 cc motorcycle, not the cam chain in the engine. Generally a motorcycle drivechain has about an inch and a half of slack midway between the counter sprocket and rear sprocket to allow suspension travel and avoid wear.

Hi the thesurgeonistherobot,

Yes your right, I forgot to put the drive-chain. Many thanks for your reply. The motorcycle has now had a new drive-chain and front and rear sprockets because having driven it with a loose chain for too long.
